Ben-Halim) Subject: announcing ncurses 1.8.5 Message-ID: <zmbenhalCLpn4I.5y2@netcom.com> Organization: NETCOM On-line Communication Services (408 241-9760 guest) Date: Thu, 24 Feb 1994 04:00:18 GMT Lines: 95 This is to announce the latest version of ncurses (1.8.5) It is available by anonymous ftp as: netcom.com:pub/zmbenhal/ncurses/1.8.5.tgz The file is a gzipped tar. gzip and tar are available from you favorite GNU archive. See the file ncurses-1.8.5/INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install ncurses. ncurses is a SYSV-compatible curses (screen management) package. It supports keypad() allowing access to function and arrow keys. It supports and uses Terminfo instead of termcap for terminal description. It has support for PC graphic characters (used in drawing boxes). It has color support similar to that in SYSV curses. It currently has support for the following: Linux 386BSD/NetBSD/FreeBSD BSDI's BSD/386 SYSTEM V R4 SunOs 4.1.3 Ultrix HP/UX 9.0 HP/UX with c89 compiler Apollo sr10.3/bsd4.3 NeXT 3.0 Some people are working on A/UX, AIX, SCO, DEC alpha, SunOs with glibc. Any comments, bug reports, patches, additions are welcome. There is a mailing for discussing ncurses and general Character-based user interfaces. Send mail to ncurses-list-request@cs.tu-berlin.de asking to be added. Before you embark on changing or fixing ncurses, please check with me. I'm continuously updating it and there is no sense in duplicating work. If you have a program that's having problems running with ncurses either send me a copy of it or tell where I can get a copy.
