-Finally, ncurses can be configured to provide its own SIGWINCH handler,
-based on <CODE>resizeterm</CODE>.
+The <CODE>ncurses</CODE> library provides a SIGWINCH signal handler,
+which pushes a <CODE>KEY_RESIZE</CODE> via the wgetch() calls.
+When <CODE>ncurses</CODE> returns that code,
+it calls <code>resizeterm</CODE>
+to update the size of the standard screen's window, repainting that
+(filling with blanks or truncating as needed).
+It also resizes other windows,
+but its effect may be less satisfactory because it cannot
+know how you want the screen re-painted.
+You will usually have to write special-purpose code to handle
+<CODE>KEY_RESIZE</CODE> yourself.
