PDCurses
========

Stable: [v3.9]
Current: [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] and System V R4 curses, and supporting a variety of compilers for
these platforms. The X11 and SDL ports let you recompile existing
text-mode curses programs to produce GUI applications.

PDCurses is distributed mainly as source code, but some pre-compiled
libraries may be available.

The latest version can be found at:

For changes, see the [History] file. The main documentation is now in the
[docs] directory.
