i'm not seeing how any of this feedback translates into "gnulib should fork ncurses". as Bruno mentioned, ncurses, like gnulib, is a GNU project, so that alone is pretty brow-raising. but even from a purely technical pov, ncurses does a _lot_, and i struggle to see why any of it makes sense in gnulib. the modules gnulib does have are either APIs on top of process state (e.g. termios) that curses doesn't cover, or aren't really terminal related (e.g. tputs). it isn't implementing any APIs that require terminal databases or escape sequences afaict. if i missed a particular API, feel free to highlight it. but this is the core of ncurses that is nothing but a hot mess regardless of where it lives. -mike
