yes, it's true I have ported PDCurses 3.0 to Plan 9, it doesn't need vt(1)
and it even has mouse support.

I don't know if lynx has any advantage over abaco, I ported it
because I needed a test case, because the demos that come
with pdcurses all use a single proc and since lynx (like links)
use select() all the time it was a good test case.
I don't like curses myself and I didn't just for fun, but I see this
could be useful to some people (like emacs fanboys).
Also we could make the perl, tcl and python ports use it.
this will give as a few more apps.
if any of you is planning to port anything, have in mind that
with pdcurses apps can't assume that 0 is the input fd.
use PDC_get_input_fd(); instead.

Yay. Would this also get readline and command history (rlwrap)?
