Versions of Ncurses Libraries ============================= There are several Ncurses Libraries which can be used for building with an terminal based application. The standard Ncurses Libraries is given with ABI 5.9 /usr/include/ncurses/*.h /usr/lib/libncurses.so or /usr/lib64/libncurses.so /usr/lib/libform.so or /usr/lib64/libform.so /usr/lib/libmenu.so or /usr/lib64/libmenu.so /usr/lib/libpanel.so or /usr/lib64/libpanel.so and its header are installed in /usr/include/ncurses/ e.g. ncurses.h. For backward compatibility with simply older programs the headers curses.h, ncurses.h, and term.h will be also found in /usr/include/. Use the output of ncurses5-config --cflags for CFLAGS ncurses5-config --libs for LDFLAGS to extend the CFLAGS and the LDFLAGS. For a version with wide character support please use the libraries with old ABI 5.9 /usr/include/ncursesw/*.h /usr/lib/libncursesw.so or /usr/lib64/libncursesw.so /usr/lib/libformw.so or /usr/lib64/libformw.so /usr/lib/libmenuw.so or /usr/lib64/libmenuw.so /usr/lib/libpanelw.so or /usr/lib64/libpanelw.so Use the output of ncursesw5-config --cflags for CFLAGS ncursesw5-config --libs for LDFLAGS to extend the CFLAGS and the LDFLAGS. For a thread safe version (also known as `reentrant') please use the libraries with ABI 6.0 /usr/include/ncurses6/ncurses/*.h /usr/lib/ncurses6/libncurses.so or /usr/lib64/ncurses6/libncurses.so /usr/lib/ncurses6/libform.so or /usr/lib64/ncurses6/libform.so /usr/lib/ncurses6/libmenu.so or /usr/lib64/ncurses6/libmenu.so /usr/lib/ncurses6/libpanel.so or /usr/lib64/ncurses6/libpanel.so together with the header files found at /usr/include/ncurses6/ncurses/ e.g. ncurses.h. For backward compatibility with simply older programs the headers curses.h, ncurses.h, and term.h will be also found in /usr/include/ncurses6/. Use the output of ncurses6-config --cflags for CFLAGS ncurses6-config --libs for LDFLAGS to extend the CFLAGS and the LDFLAGS. For a version with both wide character support and thread safe please use the libraries with ABI 6.0 /usr/include/ncurses6/ncursesw/*.h /usr/lib/ncurses6/libncursesw.so or /usr/lib64/ncurses6/libncursesw.so /usr/lib/ncurses6/libformw.so or /usr/lib64/ncurses6/libformw.so /usr/lib/ncurses6/libmenuw.so or /usr/lib64/ncurses6/libmenuw.so /usr/lib/ncurses6/libpanelw.so or /usr/lib64/ncurses6/libpanelw.so Use the output of ncursesw6-config --cflags for CFLAGS ncursesw6-config --libs for LDFLAGS to extend the CFLAGS and the LDFLAGS. It should be noted that the ABI 6.0 is not only thread safe but also includes extended mouse support and in case of the wide character version also extended color support.
