Sorry for posting here. I mailed the email in the code 3 weeks back but  
no response. [Berlios.de](http://Berlios.de) has closed bug reporting.

1. dynamic\_field\_info (form\_wrap.c):  
The function takes 3 arrays, but was not allowing 3.  
I changed 2 to 3 in line 1392, column 44. This is 0.9.1.

> RB\_CLASS\_METH(cFIELD, dynamic\_field\_info,2);

> RB\_CLASS\_METH(cFIELD, dynamic\_field\_info,3);

Now the method is callable.

1. ungetch: Many methods go through “method\_missing”. But this fails on  
ungetch and is likely to give an error on other methods too. I was not  
confident of touching that part of the code, so opened the class in ruby  
as follows:

module Ncurses  
class WINDOW  
def ungetch(ch)  
Ncurses.ungetch(ch)  
end  
end  
end

Something similar can be done for other methods that fail in  
method\_missing.

Thanks.
