Problem with curses library on Mac OS 10.2 darwin
Hello,
I am trying to write a simple program with functions in the ncurses library, on a Mac running OSX 10.2.8, with the compiler and libraries that were included in the Dec 2002 Developer's tools release (the last one that runs on Jaguar, as far as I know). When I try to compile, I get unrecognized symbol errors for all curses specific functions and definitions:
ld: Undefined symbols:
_LINES
_endwin
_initscr
_stdscr
_waddnstr
_wclear
_wgetch
_wmove
_wrefresh


Any suggestions would be appreciated,
marks
