[ANN] ncurses-ruby 0.7

ruby-talk
1

ncurses-ruby is a ruby extension which wraps the ncurses library. It provides an almost complete wrapper of the ncurses library. Additionally, it can also be used to wrap the PDCurses library.

Source and a win32 binary for MinGW-ruby are available from http://ncurses-ruby.berlios.de/

Version 0.7 features

  • an new example showing how to interactively read in a line of text from user input

  • emulations of the scanw family of functions iff scanf for ruby is installed

  • an new example using one of them

  • a bug fix for the get(n)str functions family (Thanks to J. Daubert)

  • some function renaming to avoid name clashes with ruby-1.8 (Thanks to D. Kearns)

Distribution 0.7 was missing an important file (lib/ncurses.rb), thus
0.7.1 is now available.
