At 2502 lines, _cursesmodule.c is cumbersomely large. I've just received a patch from Thomas Gellekum that adds support for the panel library that will add another 500 lines. I'd like to split the C file into several subfiles (_curses_panel.c, _curses_window.c, etc.) that get #included from the master _cursesmodule.c file.

Do the powers that be approve of this idea?

I doubt I qualify as a power that be, but I'm certainly +1 on panel support.

I'm +1 on panel support, but that seems the wrong solution. Why not have several C moudles (_curses_panel,...) and manage a more unified namespace with the Python wrapper modules? /curses/panel.py -- from _curses_panel import * etc. -- Moshe Zadka <sig@zadka.site.co.il> This is a signature anti-virus.
