Re: prompt catch

Hmm.. in the "runlyntin.py" file that I downloaded, I made this
modification:
bootoptions = {"ui": "curses",
               "datadir": "",
               "moduledir": [],
               "readfile": [],
               "snoopdefault": 1}

changed the ui to curses and now when I attempt to run that file nothing
comes up.. as a side note, I am using Windows XP.. does the curses ui work
for windows, or is this a linux/unix thing only?
