Has anone seen or know of a CFFI wrapper for PDCurses?

Hi All, I have been investigating the possibility of wrapping the PDCurses DLL on Windows (or even better the PDCursesMod fork) using cffi instead of ctypes.  The unicurses project tried this using ctypes 11 years ago but unicurses hasn't been worked on since 2010, and it shows its age. I think

ctypes on Windows question: How to access an array of uint32_t exported from a DLL?

On a Windows 10 platform (python 3.8.9 and 3.9.5), how do I use ctypes to access an array of uint32_t's exported from a DLL? The array (after various #define's are resolved) is defined as: __declspec(dllexport) extern uint32_t array_name[128]; I have read and re-read the ctypes

How to debug python + curses? [was: RE: Applying winpdb_reborn]

I tried winpdb-reborn some time last year on my Win10 system (python 3.8.3 at that time), but could not figure out how to use it to debug a python script that uses the curses module. Does anyone here know if winpdb-reborn or any other debugger can support 2-window debugging for a python script

Question for potential python development contributions on Windows

I asked this question on python-dev last week but did not get an answer. If anyone here know the answer I would appreciate it. The Python Developers Guide specifically states to get VS2017 for developing or enhancing python on a Windows system. Is it still correct to specifically use VS2017 ,

How to build stable 3.9 branch from fork and clone of cpython

I am following the "Getting Started" section of the Python Developers Guide, but when I build the first version to verify everything builds, it builds branch 3.11. If I want to build and contribute to branch 3.9, how do I set that up please? OS is Windows 10. I have, I believe, all the

Python curses question: How to separate foreground and background colors from the value returned by inch()?

The window.inch(([y, x])) function returns the character and attributes of the character at the current or specified window position. But how does one separate the foreground and background colors from the resulting value? colors = window.inch(0.0) & A_ATTRIBUTES That should return the combined

python curses constant names for mouse wheel movements?

I have a python curses project trying to detect mouse wheel movements, and I understand that mouse wheel events by convention are reported as BUTTON4 and BUTTON5 events. I am running on a Win10 system with python 3.8.7 and windows-curses 2.2.0, which I am given to understand uses the gohlke
