in reply to Curses problem: initscr and endwin missing
I once built the Curses distribution on Windows with PDCurses. I can't recover the details (the machine has been long retired), but it wasn't much harder than specifying the correct locations for the headers and the import library. The result was nice: I was able to run some Perl scripts with Curses, they seemed to behave well.
