Subject: Re: Curses for the ST

Speaking of curses, is there a *real* version of curses available
for the ST?  The only "curses" package I've seen is hardcoded for
the ST/VT52 screen only.  True curses supports any number of different
terminal types with the termcap database.  I know Fred Fish has
written a PD termcap library that will compile on the ST, but I
still haven't seen a real curses yet.
