Curses
built 632 days ago
Curses++ is a set of C++ wrapper classes for the curses library. The project is aimed at providing a layer compatible with any version of curses (ncurses and pdcurses are seen as two major versions) and to be easy-to-use, using familiar STL interfaces.

Typically most of the Curses programs are 'C' language oriented. One of the debuggers that can be used to debug a Curses program is gdb. INTERIX provides few debugging options for Curses applications. Some of the useful debugging functions are described below.

In addition, No Timeout Mode provides that in any case where Curses has received part of a function key sequence, it waits indefinitely for the complete key sequence. The ``acceptable interval'' in the previous paragraph becomes infinite in No Timeout Mode. No Timeout Mode allows the use of function keys over slow communication lines. No Timeout Mode lets the user type the individual characters of a function key sequence, but ... delays application response when the user types a character (not a function key) that begins a function key sequence. For this reason, in No Timeout Mode many terminals will appear to hang between the time a user presses the escape key and the time another key is pressed. No Timeout Mode is switchable by calling notimeout(CURSES).

Curses [S]upport color attributes on terminals. To use color functions, the start_color () function/routine must be called, usually immediately after initscr (). Colors are always used in pairs (referred to as color-pairs). A color-pair consists of a foreground color (for characters) and a background color (for the blank fields on which characters are displayed). A programmer initializes a color-pair with the routine init_pair (). After a color-pair is initialized, COLOR_PAIR (n), a macro defined in <curses.h>, is used as a new video attribute.

Curses may be aimed at you by others because of: hatred, envy, greed, jealousy, the use of magic, spiritual conflict and the desire for revenge. In some cases parents curse their children, particularly the first-born son, in order to attain pwoer in a deal with Satan or his representatives. This is said to occur in Masonic rituals.

One of the things pagan Europeans noticed about the first Christian missionaries to their land was how oblivious those missionaries were to the curses of their pagan priests. To the missionaries, the curses were just words; their mission was being done with the only real power, that of the Holy Spirit. The pagans were amazed. And eventually, converted.
