Hi, Kent !

No, curses hasn't been ported to the mac. Johnny Lee (who did the
basic nethack port and still is very much in the development team)
did a port of (emulation of) Termcap for an ANSI terminal.

The source is available at appl.com (or is that just the binary ?)
or in the comp.sources.games archives.
