It emulates and extends System V Release 4 curses, uses terminfo, and ships both libraries and utilities such as tic, infocmp, tput, clear, reset, tabs, toe, and tset. ### プロジェクトの歴史 The lineage runs through earlier curses and pcurses work. Thomas Dickey's ncurses licensing history discusses ncurses 0.7.2 from May 22, 1993 and ncurses 1.8.1 from November 5, 1993, with Pavel Curtis and Zeyd Ben-Halim copyright lineage. Dickey's history also identifies ncurses 1.9.9e on March 24, 1996 as the end of Zeyd Ben-Halim's maintainership and April 6, 1996 as Dickey's first patch against his ncurses archive. ### 採用の歴史 The ncurses 6.4 announcement says that in mid-June 1995 the maintainer of 4.4BSD curses declared it obsolete and encouraged BSD-family systems to switch to ncurses. The same announcement describes ncurses as used in almost every Linux-kernel-based system aside from some embedded applications, as the system curses library on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and macOS, and in environments such as Cygwin and MinGW. ### 使われ方 Package users depend on ncurses both directly and indirectly. Developers link libncurses, libpanel, libmenu, and libform for full-screen terminal apps; shell scripts use tput and reset; terminfo maintainers use tic and infocmp; and many interactive CLI tools pull it in through readline-like or TUI dependencies. ### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性 ncurses is foundational packaging infrastructure. It is small enough to feel mundane, but it sits under installers, text editors, terminal multiplexers, system configuration tools, roguelikes, debuggers, and countless TUIs. ABI variants, wide-character builds, terminfo database paths, and compatibility with system curses make it a perennial packaging concern. ### タイムライン - May 22, 1993: ncurses 0.7.2 appears in Thomas Dickey's reconstructed licensing history. - November 5, 1993: ncurses 1.8.1 release documented in the same history. - Mid-June 1995: 4.4BSD curses maintainer encourages switching to ncurses. - March 24, 1996: ncurses 1.9.9e marks the end of Zeyd Ben-Halim's maintainership. -
