[Caml-list] ncurses bindings

[Caml-list] ncurses bindings

[Jose A. Ortega Ruiz]

hi,

does anybody know of ocaml bindings for the ncurses lib? (i've looked
for them in the caml hump, and googled a little bit, without
luck)... and, if not, would you find them useful/interesting? (i'm
toying with the idea of writing them myself)

thanks for your help,

best regards,

jao

I have got that. Just wait a few days: I was about to do the first release.

I've build something for  ncurses  . It is a kernel for a GUI developped
for ncurses.  It is included in Tagcc an environment for gene annotation
written
in Ocaml (http://www.lami.univ-evry.fr/~delapla/tagcc/) .
I've attached the  library (.mli .c)

  The screen may be splitted  into two "windows" : the "menu and status
window" and
the main window  the scrolling  is automatically performed in the main
windows by the curses lib
(Test every keys of the numerical pad)

I hope this will help you
