Welcome to PDCurses!

PDCurses
========
Stable: [v3.9]
Beta: [See git repository][git]
PDCurses is a public domain curses library for [DOS], [OS/2], [Windows]
console, [X11] and [SDL], implementing most of the functions available
in [X/Open][xopen] and System V R4 curses. It supports many compilers
for these platforms. The X11 port lets you recompile existing text-mode
curses programs to produce native X11 applications.
PDCurses is distributed mainly as source code, but some pre-compiled
libraries may be available. See the [downloads page] for a list.
