If I puts or print something inside a hook, it is put on the bottom of
sup.

One problem is, that \n does only produce a "next line" and no "carraige
return", a problem often occoring if you try to print to a curses
controlled terminal.

How do I output some information in a curses-compliant way from a hook?
Or where would be a good starting point to search the code of sup?

Regards,

Ruthard

Hi,

You can use the buffermanager `say` methods or the log methods. When in
ncurses mode regular puts to stdout will only mess up stuff.

Cheers, Gaute
