Hi @alzrck

Interface is refreshed every time a key is pressed or every 200 ms if no key has been pressed

https://github.com/irontec/sngrep/blob/6ee2c9ca551508d620d9bf1d02bcff231da00455/src/curses/ui_manager.h#L46-L47 https://github.com/irontec/sngrep/blob/6ee2c9ca551508d620d9bf1d02bcff231da00455/src/curses/ui_manager.c#L204-L205

The halfdelay routine is used for half-delay mode, which is similar to cbreak mode in that characters typed by the user are immediately available to the program. However, after blocking for tenths tenths of seconds, ERR is returned if nothing has been typed. The value of tenths must be a number between 1 and 255. Use nocbreak to leave half-delay mode.

Best regards!
