: Working on an application that uses Curses (in fact, PDCurses)
: I miss a _good_ documentation for it.
: Where can I find one ?
Try the nutshell book on curses.

NCURSES is available from ftp.netcom.com:pub/zmbenhal/ncurses
Current version is 1.8.5
Last year I developed a curses based program on my SUN IPC (Sunos 4.1.2).
Sunos 4.1.2 has a SysV version of curses, that is the version I used.
I recently tried to compile my program with the new SUN C compiler
(version 2.0.1 I think). The curses routines that come with this compiler
are BSD routines. BSD curses and SysV curses do not seem to be compatible.
The compilation crashed (unrecognized symbols being a glaring problem).
I logged into a Solaris 2.1 based SUN that also had the new Sun C compiler
installed, and it too had BSD curses.
I would like to know why Sun chose BSD curses for their C compiler. I
thought they would surely use SysV curses for Solaris 2.x, since it is
SysV based (or does SVR4 use BSD curses by default?).
Is the source for SysV curses available via anon ftp?
Thanks for any help you can send.
