NAME
       adacurses-config	- helper script	for AdaCurses libraries

SYNOPSIS
       adacurses-config	[options]

DESCRIPTION
       This  is	 a shell script	which simplifies configuring an	application to
       use the AdaCurses library binding to ncurses.

OPTIONS
       --cflags
	      echos the	gnat (Ada  compiler)  flags  needed  to	 compile  with
	      AdaCurses.

       --libs echos the	gnat libraries needed to link with AdaCurses.

       --version
	      echos  the  release+patchdate  version  of the ncurses libraries
	      used to configure	and build AdaCurses.

       --help prints a list of the adacurses-config script's options.

       If no options are given,	adacurses-config  prints  the  combination  of
       --cflags	and --libs that	gnatmake expects (see example).

EXAMPLE
       For  example,  supposing	 that  you  want to compile the	"Hello World!"
       program for AdaCurses.  Make a file named "hello.adb":
	      with Terminal_Interface.Curses; use Terminal_Interface.Curses;

	      procedure	Hello is

		 Visibility : Cursor_Visibility	:= Invisible;
		 done :	Boolean	:= False;
		 c : Key_Code;

	      begin

		 Init_Screen;
		 Set_Echo_Mode (False);

		 Set_Cursor_Visibility (Visibility);
		 Set_Timeout_Mode (Standard_Window, Non_Blocking, 0);

		 Move_Cursor (Line => Lines / 2, Column	=> (Columns - 12) / 2);
		 Add (Str => "Hello World!");

		 while not done	loop

		    c := Get_Keystroke (Standard_Window);
		    case c is
		    when Character'Pos ('q') =>	done :=	True;
		    when others	=> null;
		    end	case;

		    Nap_Milli_Seconds (50);
		 end loop;

		 End_Windows;

	      end Hello;

       Then, using
	      gnatmake `adacurses-config --cflags`  hello  -largs  `adacurses-
	      config --libs`

       or (simpler):
	      gnatmake hello `adacurses-config`

       you will	compile	and link the program.
