I'm looking for a way to call the curses terminal handling library from
Ada, for example on Linux. A Google search turned up the *documentation*
for such a binding, but the actual code itself eludes me. The documentation
I found was also dated 2000 so that project looks unmaintained (well
maybe... of course I didn't necessarily find the latest version).
Something that also works on Windows would be ideal.
Thanks for your thoughts.
Peter

AFAIK ncurses comes with Ada bindings.
Bye...

The current version of ncurses is 5.6 (20061217)
There's an faq at
http://invisible-island.net/ncurses/ncurses.faq.html
(I've seen some other binding which doesn't use curses that does
appear to be unmaintained - lacking a URL from OP, let's assume that one).
