Honestly - neither we can, as long as you keep them secret.

I ran your code with valgrind. I just ran it up and selected exit. It listed a bunch of leaks. As far as I can tell, you don't release any of the ncurses objects.

I haven't run a scenario, so you may have more in your code.

I built your app as:
cc -g untitled.c -o untitled -lncurses

I ran your app as:
valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes ./untitled

what do you mean release the ncurses objects?

Every aquired resource needs to be released whether if be a block of memeory, a file, an ncurses window ... I would have thought that was obvious.

I must have missed that part of the document could you show an example? Lemme post the errors i got also for these guys. It's funny because every error usually has a line number of the problem but this one doesn't. Ok never mind the pasting seems to ignore my \ns so its just jiberish. You gotta compile and use valgrind like he did to see the errors. again none of the errors have line numbers corrisponding which is wierd and gcc doesn't say anything about it.
