Announcing Urwid 0.9.6

Ian,

Judging from the references to curses, which is not supported on Windows, I take it that Urwid is not supported (well "supported" is the wrong word: "expected to work") on Windows, right?

Urwid can be made to run on windows a number of ways:

You can run Urwid under cygwin:
http://www.cygwin.com
(using either the curses_display or raw_display modules)
This works with window resizing with the xterm that comes with cygwin, but it will work with cygwin's regular terminal.

Or you can install cursesw:
http://adamv.com/dev/python/curses/
(using the curses_display module only)

Or you can use pdcurses:
http://pdcurses.sourceforge.net/
(using the curses_display module only)
Gottfried Ganßauge posted a patch to the mailing list yesterday to make special keys work with pdcurses.

HTH,
Ian
