NCurses Examples from "Programmer's Guide to NCurses" book by Dan Gookin

Even though I've never read Gookin's book, I've noticed that his website tarball with C sources is quite useful, as it contains small self-contained programs. To the sources I've added a makefile to make build automated and I've fixed programs which weren't compiling.

Dependencies

For MacOSX: TBD (either nothing, or whatever brew installed as a dependency for the apps)

For Ubuntu:

apt-get install libncurses5-dev libncurses5

How to build?

Fetch the source, enter its folder and type make:

git clone https://github.com/wkoszek/ncurses_guide.git
cd ncurses_guide
./build.sh

The result of this will be in book/ and book-ref/ directories with ``.prog'' programs, each one corresponding to its .c file.

To clean-up, run:

./build.sh clean
