[Oorexx-devel] Including NCURSES directly in ooRexx

[David A. <da...@us...>]

All -

I am currently in the process of making the modifications to the Linux 
version RexxUtil for the new version of ooRexx. I would like opinions on 
whether or not it would be a good idea to include Curses support directly 
in RexxUtil. Doing so would decrease the amount of code in RexxUtil for 
supporting console I/O and would allow the creation of additional 
functions for curser manipulation, line drawing, color, etc. The 
disadvantage is that some platforms may not have Curses support.

If you have opinions on this subject please let me know.

Thanks,
