Curses appears in the v8 manual but not v7. Of course a conclusion that it was not ported to v7 turns on dates. Does v7 refer to a point in time or an interval that extended until we undertook to prepare the v8 manual? Obviously curses was ported during or before that interval. If curses was available when the v7 manual was prepared, I (who edited both editions) evidently was unaware of any dependence on it then.
