I now have tpp working on Ubuntu 18.04.

Unfortunately, the link to ncurses-ruby in the error message (http
://ncurses-ruby.berlios.de/) doesn't work, but this one does:

https://github.com/sup-heliotrope/ncursesw-ruby

However, I had trouble installing it until I ran

sudo apt-get install ruby-dev zlib1g-dev liblzma-dev

as recommended here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44239377/cant-install-rails-on-
linux-failed-to-build-gem-native-extension-with-ruby-2

Then "gem install ncursesw" worked (after cloning the above github
repository) and I could open the sample files for tpp.
