guile-ncurses 1.6 released

Item posted by Mike Gran <mike121> on Tue 28 Oct 2014 12:05:34 AM UTC.

I am pleased to announce version 1.6 of GNU Guile-ncurses. Guile-ncurses is a library for the creation of text user interfaces in the GNU Guile dialect of the Scheme programming language. It is based on the ncurses project's curses, panel, form, and menu libraries.

The web page for GNU guile-ncurses is
http://www.gnu.org/software/guile-ncurses/

Its canonical download location is
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guile-ncurses/

Or you can download it from a mirror at
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/guile-ncurses/

This release adds a couple of new features and changes

- Two more ncurses functions have been wrapped: 'unctrl' and 'resizeterm'
- 'form-driver' now handles Unicode if a recent version of ncurses is being used
- '%is-form-driver-wide' is a new constant that indicates if 'form-driver' can handle Unicode
- 'newterm' now operates only on file ports. Other port types never worked correctly.
- the configure script no longer ignores LIBS and LDFLAGS specified on the command line

Thanks,

Mike Gran
