## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

CDK, the Curses Development Kit, is a C curses widget library for building terminal user interfaces. Its official Invisible Island page describes it as a library of customizable curses widgets, similar in spirit to dialog but linked into applications.

### プロジェクトの歴史

The project was originally written by Mike Glover in the mid-1990s. Thomas E. Dickey's official history identifies CDK 4.6.0, with source files dated January 20, 1996, as the earliest version he had encountered and notes that Glover announced it in comp.sources.unix in January 1996.

Dickey became involved after Glover asked in late 1998 about distributing CDK with ncurses. Dickey reviewed the 4.9.8 code, reworked build and licensing issues, continued cleanup work, and released CDK 5.0 in April 2005.

### 採用の歴史

The official history notes that CDK had already been built on several Unix systems, including Linux, SunOS, Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, and QNX 4. It also records ncurses mailing-list discussion from the late 1990s in which CDK was suggested to users wanting a higher-level interface than raw ncurses.

CDK's distribution history is tied to classic Unix source-package culture: comp.sources.unix announcements, QNX-hosted tarballs, ncurses-adjacent maintenance, and ports or packages across Unix-like systems.

### 使われ方

CDK is used when a C program needs form, dialog, menu, scrolling-list, and other terminal widgets without building every curses interaction from scratch. The Homebrew package exposes cdk5-config for build flags and metadata.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

For package maintainers, CDK is interesting because it sits between low-level ncurses and full-screen TUI applications: it is a small library whose portability, ABI, licensing, and configure-script behavior mattered across many Unix packaging systems.

### タイムライン

- 1996: CDK 4.6.0 announced in comp.sources.unix and distributed as source.
- 1998: Mike Glover asks Thomas E. Dickey about distributing CDK with ncurses.
- 1999: Dickey begins cleanup, configure-script work, and license repair.
- 2005: CDK 5.0 released by Dickey.

### Related projects

- CDK is closely related to curses and ncurses, and its official page compares its role to dialog while emphasizing that CDK is a linkable widget library rather than a standalone dialog program.
