You should install the MSYS2 package, so that you have a shell environment that allows you to run scripts, especially configure, etc. You can get that from https://www.msys2.org/ or the individual packages from https://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/files/ You may also use a hosted MinGW cross-compile toolchain, e.g., on Ubuntu or ArchLinux to build the libraries and tools. To build ncurses for native Windows with support for the new Windows 10 Virtual Terminal and PseudoConsole support, you should install at least version 8.0 of the mingw-w64-x86_64-headers package as it appears to have support for the required Windows SDK level. Please note that some of the Linux distributions are a bit behind with respect to the required MinGW header versions and you may not be able to properly build the libraries for current Windows 10 using these toolchains. Although it is a bit slow, MSYS2 on Windows 10 64-Bit is the authoritative build environment for the MinGW version of ncurses. Using MinGW is a pragmatic decision, it is the easiest way to port this heavily UNIX based sourcebase to native Windows. The goal is of course to provide the includes, libraries and DLLs to be used with the more common traditional development environments on Windows, mainly with Microsoft Visual Studio. The TERM environment variable must be set especially to activate the Windows console-driver. The driver checks if TERM is set to "#win32con" (explicit use) or if TERM is unset or empty (implicit). Beginning with build 17763 (Fall 2018 update), Windows 10 supports ANSI escape sequences (Virtual Terminal support). If ncurses detects this or a later Windows 10 version, the interpretation of the implicit TERM setting (which means: TERM is not set or empty) changes. In this case, TERM is to be assumed to be "ms-terminal" and ncurses acts using the regular terminfo based driver, thus acting like a regular Terminal we all know from UNIX like environments. This code requires WindowsNT 6.0 or better, which means on the client Windows Vista or better, on the server Windows Server 2008 or better. If running on Windows 10 Build 17763 or later is detected, any program spawning a subprocess running a ncurses program should use the new PseudoConsole support, which provides what we know as pty from the UNIX world also for Windows. Using the CreatePseudoConsole API (see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/createpseudoconsole) in the calling process, it is guaranteed that the called ncurses program has a console that is required by its implementation, even if the calling program is NOT a console program, e.g., MSYS2's own mintty Terminal emulator. In the current MSYS2/minGW setup, building MinGW shared libraries with libtool for ncurses seems to be broken, so I recommend NOT to use libtool. To build a modern but still small footprint ncurses that provides hooks for interop, I recommend using these options: --without-libtool --disable-home-terminfo --enable-database --disable-termcap --enable-sp-funcs --enable-term-driver --enable-interop This is the configuration command line which I am using at the moment (assuming environment variable MINGW_ROOT holds the root directory name of your MinGW build): ./configure \ --prefix=/mingw64 \ --without-cxx \ --without-ada \ --enable-warnings \ --enable-assertions \ --enable-exp-win32 \ --enable-ext-funcs \ --disable-home-terminfo \ --disable-echo \ --disable-getcap \ --disable-hard-tabs \ --disable-leaks \ --disable-macros \ --disable-overwrite \ --enable-opaque-curses \ --enable-opaque-panel \ --enable-opaque-menu \ --enable-opaque-form \ --enable-database \ --enable-sp-funcs \ --enable-term-driver \ --enable-interop \ --disable-termcap \ --enable-database \ --with-progs \ --without-libtool \ --enable-pc-files \ --with-shared \ --with-normal \ --without-debug \ --with-fallbacks=ms-terminal \ --without-manpages Please note that it is also necessary to set this environment variable: export PATH_SEPARATOR=";" in order to parse the terminfo paths correctly. Terminfo paths should always be separated by a semicolon, even when running under MSYS2. All the options above are - like the whole Windows support - experimental. -- vile:txtmode
