[comp.unix.microport] Shared libraries, specfil, curses?

merlin@cms2.UUCP (Merlin Wilkerson) (02/02/89)

   I am interested in building a shared library for curses.  Even 
getting initscr() and endwin() and related functions into a shared 
library should help considerably considering the output size of the
following program.

/* w.c */
#include <curses.h>
main() { initscr(); endwin(); }

$cc -s w.c -o w -lcurses; ls -l w
-rwxr-xr-x   1 merlin   staff      90616 Feb  1 13:20 w

    I would really like to see a "specfil" suitable for mkshlib(1).
It would be wonderful if it involved curses, but ANY "specfil" would
be helpful.  Any experiences along this line would also help.

thanks,
