Replace idlok by newwin and setscreg by subwin. Furthermore replace the lines
reading
X	attron(A_REVERSE);
by
X	standout();
and the lines reading
X	attroff(A_REVERSE);
by
X	standend();
This works fine for me under BSD4.3. A pity there isn't yet an option to
add entries to rf_data (or did I miss something??)

You're referring to quite another program here. There were so many different
programs under this name that you should be specific as to which one you
refer (they ALL compiled o.k. here).
By the way does anybody know about a version of rolo ( or another adressbase)
that lets you add a substantial amount of text under COMMENTS ?
