[ANN] guile-ncurses 3.0

Show all headers | View raw

I am pleased to announce the release of guile-ncurses 3.0.

guile-ncurses is a library for the creation of text user interfaces in
the GNU Guile dialect of the Scheme programming language.  It is a
wrapper to the ncurses TUI library.  It contains some basic text
display and keyboard and mouse input functionality, as well as a menu
widget and a form widget.  It also has lower level terminfo and
termios functionality.

It can be downloaded from all the standard GNU places.

Because of big changes to data representation, this release may have
regressions.  Please report bugs to bug-guile-ncurses@gnu.org

NEWS

- Requires Guile 2.2.4 or greater.
- Assumes Guile characters are Unicode codepoints.
- New build option --enable-hardening to compile with some hardening options
- New procedures termios-vmin-get and termios-vmin-set!
- New procedures termios-vtime-get and termios-vtime-set!
- New openpt procedure to open pseudoterminals

Mike Gran
