ncurses (new curses) is a free software emulation of curses in System V Rel 4.0 (and above). It uses terminfo format, supports pads, colors, multiple highlights, form characters and function key mapping. Because of the interactive nature of this library, it will be of little use for writing Web applications, but may be useful when writing scripts meant using PHP from the command line.

This repository was started to support the use of PECL ncurses which has been deprecated in PHP 7 and later versions. Therefore, the development direction of this extension is only to provide support for the upper version of PHP.

There is no version release. Take a look at the commit log and download the latest revision of master.

Currently, operations from PHP 5.3 to 8.1 have been confirmed.
