I was just checking out the getstr/getnstr functions. If I fill the string with characters, everything goes fine. But if I enter a fewer characters than the size of the string passed to getstr, then mvprintw crashes with an error saying:
Run the attached file. Remove the line that strips str and the exception is thrown. Try entering less than 8 chars and you get the error. I get the same error with getstr and getnstr.
(p.s, this is not critical. For all I know, this is a bug in the underlying platform)
I am on Mac OS Sierra 10.12.6 (16G1212).
ruby 2.5.0p0 (2017-12-25 revision 61468) [x86_64-darwin16]
I believe I am using the stock libncurses 5.4
Best wishes,
