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