two places to look:

        a) see the SetOutputMode(), SetDefaultMode() macros in LYCurses.h, and 
how they're
           used (or not used in your case), and

        b) less likey, look at the mode (second parameter) of fopen.  Doug
           Kaufman made a comment to the effect that my having substituted "r"
           to TXT_R in some places would break things, since TXT_R when DOSPATH
           is defined is an explicit text-type rather than whatever the
           SetDefaultMode() macro leaves it as.  But the EMX build doesn't
           define DOSPATH (and SetDefaultMode() won't work there).

           But it's possible that I broke something anyway...

(I haven't be on OS/2 for about a month, but agree this should be fixed)
