The ncurses software includes a SVr4 and XSI-Curses compatible
|
|
curses library as well as terminfo tools including "tic", "infocmp",
|
|
and "captoinfo". The library is used by other programs for text-mode
|
|
support of color, multiple highlights, forms-drawing characters,
|
|
automatic recognition of keypad and function-key sequences, and
|
|
more.
|
|
|
|
The ncurses library uses a terminfo database (included), but can
|
|
be configured to use BSD's /etc/termcap file instead. This has
|
|
been approved by the old 4.4BSD curses maintainer as the official
|
|
4.4BSD curses successor.
