PDCurses for SDL 1.x
This is a port of PDCurses for version 1.x of SDL.
Building
-
On *nix (including Linux and Mac OS X), run "make" in the sdl1 directory. There is no configure script (yet?) for this port. This assumes a working sdl-config, and GNU make. It builds the library libpdcurses.a (dynamic lib not implemented).
-
The makefile accepts the optional parameter "DEBUG=Y", and recognizes the optional PDCURSES_SRCDIR environment variable, as with the console ports. "WIDE=Y" builds a version that not only uses 16-bit Unicode characters, but depends on the SDL_ttf library, instead of using simple bitmap fonts. "UTF8=Y" makes PDCurses ignore the system locale, and treat all narrow-character strings as UTF-8; this option has no effect unless WIDE=Y is also set.
