I've been watching this thread about curses for the //gs for
some time now and had a thought. Is there a curses version for
the Mac? If so, and if the source code is available, wouldn't
it be fairly easy to just port that version rather than putting
a curses lib together from scratch? After all, a lot of Mac
toolbox calls, etc are similar to //gs calls. That should 
simplify matters a little.
