Well it really happened. I blew away parts 2 and 3 of curses for the ST. Could someone please email it to me? I would really appreciate it. -- ******************************************************************************* Any opinions expressed above are my own. Rich Andrews They can be yours too.

Does anybody have, or know where to get, a curses package for the ST that will compile nicely under MWC version 2.1.7? I have the package that is floating around the archive site but I cannot get it compile properly under MWC. Any help would be appreciated.

Subject: Re: Curses for the ST
Speaking of curses, is there a *real* version of curses available
for the ST? The only "curses" package I've seen is hardcoded for
the ST/VT52 screen only. True curses supports any number of different
terminal types with the termcap database. I know Fred Fish has
written a PD termcap library that will compile on the ST, but I
still haven't seen a real curses yet.

I know Fred Fish has I have successfully compiled the curses version of the BSD4.3 distribution which was posted in comp.sources.unix some time ago. I've used GCC for this. This package needs a termcap library and Fred Fish's one does the job. > Jim McCabe - Edgar

The request was whether there is a curses package for an other compiler
than MEGAMAX. I don't know, but the MEGAMAX one was easy to convert to
TURBOC; so it won't be difficult to port it to MWC (i think).
The main change is to change the line containing overlay; this is
a MEGAMAX keyword and you probably don't want to know about it (:-)).
Just delete that one.
second, you can change the name of woverlay() back to overlay();
third, but not to essential: in the header file are the macros defined
as
#define func(arg) { func1(arg); func2(arg); }.
This can not be casted like:
(void) func( arg );
so i changed the header file to:
#define func(arg) ( func1(arg), func2(arg) )
Good luck,
Klamer.

The curses package on him1.cc.umich.edu was written to go with MEGAMAX C true, BUT I compiled it with Sozobon C with next to NIL changes if any. I believe that it MWC should have no trouble with it. -Ant achowe@tiger.waterloo.edu | "Murdered by pirates is good." __ _ | - The Princess Bride (movie) / _ _ _ |/ _ _ | _ _ |/ | \__| `<_\<_ |\|= | ` \_/<_\<_ |\ | disclaimer...

Anyone know where this can be uucp'd from. I don't have ftp access here and this is something that I will need in the coming months when I port a translation program from UNIX and DOS(ug) to the ST. -- Phil Hughes, SSC, Inc. P.O.
