Subject: curses library

I've been trying to use the curses library that is on oak.oakland.edu
(in /pub/msdos/djgpp of course) and am having problems linking.

Specifically, the linker complains about unresolved externals in a
module called cvidintf.o that's in libcurse.a.  It's looking for things
like puttext, gettext, ScreenAttrib, ScreenClear, ScreenSetCurser,
ScreenGetCurser, and ScreenMode.  The libcurse.a is from 1992, and so I
suspect that it is no longer compatible with the current release of
djgpp.

In addition, the code I'm woring on uses the curses functions pause(),
tputs(), and nodelay() which are apparantly not supported.

Any help would be appreciated.
