yes, but I fixed the problem, noted here:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-ncurses/2026-06/msg00023.html

In this expression

	flash=3D\E[?5h$<200/>\E[?5l,

the "$<200/>" is a mandatory delay, but by default those are done with
padding -- which won't work for devices which ignore padding.  So it
needs npc.
