What is currently running on the 7300/3b1 is UNIX, it's just not Release 2.
Based on my past experience, here's what happened:
1) Up to, but not including, Release 2, `curses' and the termcap database
were 2 seperate entities. libtermcap.a had all the *low-level* functions,
while libcurses.a had all the higher level functions. The high level
functions in libcurses.a depended on the functions in libtermcap.a, so
to compile a program using curses you have to include
-lcurses -ltermcap
IN THAT ORDER when you compile.
2) In Release 2, all (as far as I know) of the functions formerly in
libtermcap.a were included in libcurses.a, making libtermcap.a
unneeded.
To summarize:
System V, Release 2: cc -o battle battle.c -lcurses
System V, Release ?: cc -o battle battle.c -lcurses -ltermcap
(7300/3b1, whatever
it is)
Hope this helps.
