Using a textsw I've encountered some strange behaviour using the
textsw_insert() function. The textsw_insert() writes a buffer to
the textsw several times in a for-loop. Allthough the textsw_insert()
gives as return value the correct number of characters, but not one
single character appears in the textsw, until a few textsw_inserts
have been performed. It looks like the output to the textsw is
buffered some way, but I could not find any pointer to this in
volume 7 of O'Reilly.
Does someone have an idea why this is happening and/or what to do
about it (some kind of flushing?...).

Thanks in advance,

                                                with kind regards
                                                Bert Holstein,
