thanks! works like a champ, on both linux and netbsd. i built with curses 
disabled on netbsd 1.5.1 and enabled on linux. i also manually removed 
@ac_doc_subdir@ from the makefile so it wouldn't complain about tex. no prob. 
well done.

also, i noticed that simulavr runs several orders of magnitude faster without a 
--disp-prog argument. the stuff that display.c is doing doesn't look that 
expensive to me, but apparently it is. i'll take a closer look some other time.

again, thanks, and enjoy your vacation!
