This directory contains demonstration programs to show and test the capabilities of curses libraries. Some of them predate PDCurses, PCcurses or even pcurses/ncurses. Although some PDCurses-specific code has been added, all programs remain portable to other implementations (at a minimum, to ncurses).
The demos are built by the platform-specific makefiles, in the platform directories. Alternatively, you can build them manually, individually, and link with any curses library; e.g., "cc -lcurses -orain rain.c". There are no dependencies besides curses and the standard C library, and no configuration is needed.
