	Ncurses
		Ncurses is a programming library providing an API, allowing the programmer to write text-based user interfaces, TUIs[?], in a terminal-independent manner.
		Ncurses stands for "new curses", and is a replacement for the discontinued 4.4BSD classic curses.
		Ncurses is a part of the GNU project, see [1] (http://www.gnu.org/software/ncurses/ncurses.html).

		modify parameter type in c++ binding for insch() and mvwinsch() to be consistent with underlying ncurses library (was char, is chtype).
		add -c and -w options to allow user to suppress ncurses' resizing of the terminal emulator window in the special case where it is not able to detect the true size.
		Beta versions of Ncurses and patches to the current release are made available at ftp://invisible-island.net/ncurses/.

	Manual Lookup for 'ncurses.3'
		The ncurses routines emulate the ncurses(3NCURSES) library of System V Release 4 UNIX, and the XPG4 curses standard (XSI curses) but the ncurses library is freely redistributable in source form.
		The ncurses package supports: overall screen, window and pad manipula- tion; output to windows and pads; reading terminal input; control over terminal and curses input and output options; environment query rou- tines; color manipulation; use of soft label keys; terminfo capabili- ties; and access to low-level terminal-manipulation routines.
		TERMCAP If the ncurses library has been configured with termcap support, ncurses will check for a terminal's description in termcap form if it is not available in the terminfo database.

	ncurses(3): CRT screen handling/optimization ... - Linux man page
		The ncurses package supports: overall screen, window and pad manipulation; output to windows and pads; reading terminal input; control over terminal and curses input and output options; environment query routines; color manipulation; use of soft label keys; terminfo capabilities; and access to low-level terminal-manipulation routines.
		The ncurses library permits manipulation of data structures, called windows, which can be thought of as two-dimensional arrays of characters representing all or part of a CRT screen.
		During initialization, the ncurses library checks for special cases where VT100 line-drawing (and the corresponding alternate character set capabilities) described in the terminfo are known to be missing.

		The ncurses routines emulate the curses(3X) library of System V Release 4 UNIX, and the XPG4 curses standard (XSI curses) but the ncurses library is freely redistributable in source form.
		The ncurses library is intended to be BASE-level conformant with the XSI Curses standard.

	Ada95 Binding for ncurses
		The ncurses Ada95 binding is © 1996-2000 by Jürgen Pfeifer.
		Mention of ncurses and the author of this binding in any applications linked with it is highly appreciated.
		ncurses has internally implemented it in a way, that uses the line parameter also to control the amount of lines to steal.

	lf233, SoftwareDevelopment: Introduction to Ncurses (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Ncurses is a library that provides function-key mapping, screen painting functions and the ability to use multiple non-overlapping windows on text-based terminals.
		Therefore, ncurses could be used and trusted for designs that are supposed to work across different platforms and various terminals.
		This mechanism is the reason why ncurses functions and standard I/O functions can produce bad results when used together; when ncurses functions are called they set a flag which tells refresh that the line has changed whereas nothing like this happens when you call a standard I/O function.

	NCURSES - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
		Ncurses shares with SVr4 curses a limitation which is documented in the C standard.
		Ncurses uses this information to slow down the rate at which characters are sent to the terminal.
		Ncurses 5.0 is not compatible with ncurses 4.2, however I frequently see people advising others to "fix" programs that require the older library to make a symbolic link from the newer name to the older.

		Ncurses install routine doesn't set the permissions properly so we do it manaully instead.
		The libraries that make up the Ncurses library are used to display text (often in a fancy way) on the screen.

		Ncurses 1.8.1 was too immature (dumped core, was not portable, etc).

		As a permanent and cleaner fix, we do not provide update packages for the ncurses library, but we suggest to change the modes of the relevant setuid applications.
		There are three setuid-root applications contained in SuSE-distributions: xaos (suid root for permissions to use SVGAlib on the Linux console) screen (does not need root privs in the latest version) cda, contained in the xmcd program, a command line CD player.
		The script attached to the email with this announcement changes the modes of files in the SuSE distribution that match both criteria necessary to exploit the buffer overflow in the ncurses library: 1) the binary is setuid root, 2) it is linked against libncurses.

After using routines to manipulate a window, refresh is called, telling curses to make the user's CRT screen look like stdscr.

		This can be done by executing the tput init command after the shell environment variable TERM has been exported.

		In either case, setting it directs ncurses to ignore the usual place for this informa- tion, e.g., /etc/termcap.
