Volume 1 of mod.sources (available at SEISMO for FTP) has PCURSES, a public-domain version of CURSES; it may be possible to make it work under MS-DOS. There are at least 2 commercial (~$125) versions on the IBM PC (see the June 87 issue of Computer Language, p. 144). -------

ASPEN SCIENTIFIC sells a curses package for the PC. I believe the price
is about 85.00. It is an excellent product. We have used it here to port
a number of applications from UNIX (tm) environments to the PC.

There were many bugs in the posting (the n.b. read 'needs work') and it is not ready for distribution as a 'PC Curses'. What I have is a curses that is kludged together such that it worked without problems with the recent rogue53 clone and with the mille bournes program that came with the curses code. If you're interested in this code 'as is', in uuencoded pkarc format, then I will endeaver to send it to you via return e-mail, or a supplied path. No guarantees are made as to the reliability of the package, it still 'needs work'. :-) - Tim Iverson iverson@cory.Berkeley.EDU ucbvax!cory!iverson

Is there some way to get the PD-curses besides FTP. We're not an ARPA-net site. -- "Are you police officers?" "No ma'am, we're musicians."
