95 (description
96 "The Ncurses (new curses) library is a free software emulation of curses
97in System V Release 4.0, and more. It uses Terminfo format, supports pads
98and color and multiple highlights and forms characters and function-key
99mapping, and has all the other SYSV-curses enhancements over BSD Curses.
100
101The ncurses code was developed under GNU/Linux. It has been in use for some
102time with OpenBSD as the system curses library, and on FreeBSD and NetBSD as
103an external package. It should port easily to any ANSI/POSIX-conforming
104UNIX. It has even been ported to OS/2 Warp!")
