I know but I need to cover all possible situations.

Absolutely not. As said my problem is to make a "compact" tool more
portable as possible. However after checked the way of console codes I
decided to move using ncurses but trying to "integrate" the library
source code inside the project. This will allow to use different
compilers (just x86 and arm right now) without need to have the library
in binary format to link statically.

By the way, thank you for your help
