It looks like this is a new bug in F13; I'm unable to reproduce it in F12.  As soon as I get my F13 development box up I'll see if I can get a fix.

Comment 2 Wart 2010-04-18 23:52:04 UTC
backgammon assumes you are running in a terminal that is at least 24 lines tall.  If you resize your terminal smaller than 24 lines, it will crash.  I'll add a check when the app starts and have it die with an appropriate error message if the terminal is too small.
