Ncurses
This is currently in BETA.
There will be bugs. C Macros are missing, enums are slightly renamed. If you have any trouble, or think that something should be fixed, then please create a bug report.
Variants of this package
This package can be build in three variants:
-
minimal: The minimal (which is the default configuration) configurations only links the ncursesw library.
-
panels: The panels configuration additionally links the panelw library.
-
full: The full configuration additionally links the formw and menuw library.
To use a specific configuration in your projects, depend on this package by adding the following config snippet to your project's dub.json:
"subConfigurations": {
"ncurses": "full"
}
Building on macOS
The stock ncurses libraries on macOS don't include the wide libraries. Thus the full ncurses version needs to be installed with Homebrew. Homebrew installs ncurses below /usr/local/opt/ncurses, where the dub configuration will pick it up.
First install Homebrew using the instructions on the web site, then you can add the ncurses package with
brew install ncurses
