ncurses 4.2?

1998-07-15 Thread servis 

How can I install ncurses 4.2 without wrecking havoc on my system and
keeping everyting happy, dependencies and all?  I would like to use a
beta release of taper that fixes a bug I am experiencing with large
archives and it needs at least ncurses 4.1.

Thanks,

Brian

You could put it in /usr/local/ncurses and use the following in your
Makefile:

ICURSES = -I/usr/local/ncurses/include
LCURSES = /usr/local/ncurses/lib/libncurses.a

As an aside, I've never gotten taper to work successfully since upgrading
to ftape-3.04d.
