So, will Rob just ship one version of *Nix Eu without ncurses and then
those who want to use it will include it separately?

Will/should/could TxWin be wrapped in the same manner as ncurses?

Will leaving ncurses out of the interpreter render any improvement in overall
speed?

Considering overwhelming popularity of GUI's ( Windows, WxWidgets, GTK ) would
it be wise for Robert to leave such libraries as ncurses and TxWin out of the
Euphoria interpreter all together....  or Since TxWin is crossplatform, drop
ncurses and use TxWin in all versions of Eu?


Lots of interesting stuff happening here - thanks to Chris Burch for wrapping
ncurses!
