Hello everybody. Recently I asked myself if Free Pascal has support for ncurses and I've found it as an extra package.
I've take a peek at the ncurses.pp file and I've found it uses a lot of external functions. That means this package will not compile on platforms that haven't a previous ncurses implementation (NDS, GP32/2X, etc.). I think if the ncurses package uses the RTL (Crt, keyboard, gpm, etc.) it would be more portable, if the platform can't support Crt, keyboard, mouse, etc. they can be emulated. Then I decided to write my own ncurses.pp alternative using only the RTL. I will not claim "official declaration" or support, and may be it will not be so complete and successful as Michael Van Canneyt's implementation, but any comment or advice will be welcome. See you, Guillermo "Ñuño" Martínez _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
