ncurses for emscripten

ncurses 6.1 compiled by emscripten for usage in a browser. They are compiled, loaded, but don't work! You are wanted to make it work!

HowTo

  1. Install emscripten, instructions.
  2. Activate emscripten by source emsdk_env.sh.
  3. Compile ncurses app source files:
vim hello.c
vim min-shell.html
./hello2.sh
# Launch your favorite http-server to serve ./ (mine is: https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server)
# Open http://localhost:<YOUR_PORT>/hello.html in the browser
  1. Alternative way:
./hello.sh
# Launch your favorite http-server to serve ./ (mine is: https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server)
# Open http://localhost:<YOUR_PORT>/index.html in the browser

About hello2.sh, worm2.sh, *2.sh

These files make use of ./min-shell.html and compile to hello.html, worm.html, *.html. Sometimes index.html fails, but min-shell.html works, that's why I recommend *2.sh files for a robust experience.
