fiel_buffer

[Andres Londoño]

Hi:


I am triying to make work the example  test/ncurses.c
using this WHILE to extract the contents of the user
input.

It works, but in some fields there is no output to
show, 
and the cicle may exit the program as "overflow" (?).


char extractor[21]="";
int counter=4;

strcpy(extractor, field_buffer(f[counter], 0) );      
   /*  Error  */
code = atoi(extractor);     
mvprintw(1 + baja, 57, "%d -> %s \n", baja,
field_buffer(f[counter], 0));             
             

I think, sometimes  field_buffer() have garbage and
the  mvprintw() and  strcpy() 
function can not handle this. 

¿May I have to reserve memory for char extractor[]?
