- Although not yet 'officially' announced, a beta version of PDCurses 2.0 is
- available for anon ftp. This library is an almost complete rewrite of the
- original PCCurses 1.4, by Bjorn Larrson. PDCurses is System V based,
- supports pads, color etc. The library works on DOS and OS/2. Work is
- currently underway to compile with emx and/or gcc/2. PDCurses is public
- domain code.
-
- You can ftp the source from:
-
- accord.dciem.dnd.ca (192.16.207.25)
-
- in /pub/curses/pdcurses
-
- If you have any problems or bug fixes, let me know.

- Cheers, Mark
