I finally got to this step with ncurses and stuck. Any help would be greatly
appreciated!
I am using mingw, msys 1.0
configurate
Make

And also
When I ran ./configure --enable-debug at the dosbox0.74 dir, it says sh: No such file or directory. There is no configure files there in my setup not sure whats going on... tried to export ld=/l/mingw/bin/ld.exe to no avail

Thanks
Jack

I finally resort to using pdcurses, with one final error that I can't get thru.
What is the equivalent function for this one?

1if (!debugging) {
2		mvwprintw(dbg.win_code,10,0,"%s","(Running)");
3		wclrtoeol(dbg.win_code);
4	} else {
5		//TODO long lines
6		char* dispPtr = codeViewData.inputStr; 
7		char* curPtr = &codeViewData.inputStr[codeViewData.inputPos];
8		mvwprintw(dbg.win_code,10,0,"%c-> %s%c",
9			(codeViewData.ovrMode?'O':'I'),dispPtr,(*curPtr?' ':'_'));
10		wclrtoeol(dbg.win_code); // not correct in pdcurses if full line
11		if (*curPtr) {
12			mvwchgat(dbg.win_code,10,(curPtr-dispPtr+4),1,0,(PAIR_BLACK_GREY),NULL);
13 		} 
14	}

Any Hints
Thanks
Jack

What pdcurses version is that? Precompiled?

Finally,
I have to make use of the latest version of the library to make it work.
Wow.. cold sweat....
Thanks a lot [please close thread]
Jack

I have to make use of the latest version of the library to make it work.

If you mean "instead of the 4 years old version I have to use the 2 years old one" then that may help 😀

This one really works like magic

Always worked fine when compiling from sources, too, at least for me.
