Has anyone converted curses for use under Lightspeed C? I'd like to compile a version of moria the Mac.

I've been working on a moria port in my spare time for a while and decided it would look nicer and possibly be easier to write if I forgot about writing curses and instead rewrote misc?.c and io.c in a more Mac User Interface manner. The big problem I'm facing is the huge amount of external data (the treasure and monster tables) and how to reasonably cope with them. I wish ResEdit had a TMPL field for fixed-length 'C' char[]'s...

The original code is proprietary to THINK. I have made a bunch of enhancements as well. It requires a modified stdio library which may be why THINK is not releasing it. There is a curses which is under evaluation by THINK I think :-). I do not know of the status of the evaluation. I have NO connection with THINK Technologies except as a satisfied user of Lightspeed C and Lightspeed Pascal.
