Background - There is a C language curses program I gcc compile under Linux, using ncurses. It works great. I also compile the curses program under DOS, using pdcurses included with mingw. The DOS version works fine in production mode. But there are some problems: 1) in test mode some printf options (long long, long double) do not work with mingw on my xp computer, 2) mingw seems old, I would like to explore mingw-64, but cannot find curses included with mingw-64, 3) it would seem better to use same curses version under DOS and Unix, 4) I would prefer to cross-compile the DOS application under Linux, it would be easier for me to automate and keep consistent under Linux.
So my questions: Can anyone direct me to resources or outline how to set up mingw-64 so I can compile a C curses program under mingw-64, either directly compile under DOS, or cross-compile on linux to generate a DOS executable? If I set up curses under mingw-64, any suggestion whether to use ncurses or pdcurses? I apologize for using ancient curses technology, but it works well. And I apologize if I have missed something obvious.
