Do not know is this a bug or a feature but anyway.

1. Press @ to Player Info window
2. Press ? to Help Window
3. Press ESC.

Neither player info nor screen behind in not redrawing.  
I have big screen, much bigger than 80x25 if it helps.

That’d be a bug, thanks for reporting. What version and OS are you running?

Tested this out on my experimental installation 5aec41c (0.B-2771) and I get black screen where options screen used to be though character screen works fine otherwise. Pressing esc again closes the character screen and removes the black box.

Terminal size at 200,58.

Running windows 7.
