Well, I didn't exactly understand your question, but: 1) FreeBSD has two types of curses. With <curses.h> you get the old BSD-curses. With <ncurses.h> you get a newer version, which looks more like SystemV. You need -lcurses or -lncurses in the linker phase. 2) It has termcap, and it has terminfo too (well, if you need terminfo, you have to generate it with ``tconv''). If I remember well, you need the -ltermcap or -ltermlib linker flag. 3) it has sockets in the kernel, so you don't need a separate library. No -lsocket, no -lx. -- Gabor Zahemszky <zgabor@CoDe.hu> -:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:- Earth is the cradle of human sense, but you can't stay in the cradle forever.
