this is a fork of lcurses project which remove complex build system, and add wide char support, it current only support for Lua 5.3.

lcurses is a curses binding for Lua 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 (including LuaJIT).

lcurses is released under the MIT license, like Lua (see COPYING; it's basically the same as the BSD license). There is no warranty.

Unfortunately, there's currently no documentation other than lcurses.c. It's fairly straightforward, though.

Please report bugs and make suggestions by opening an issue on the github tracker.

The simplest way to install lcursesw is with LuaRocks. To install the latest release (recommended):

luarocks install lcursesw

To install current git master (for testing):

luarocks install https://raw.github.com/DavidFeng/lcursesw/lcurses-git-1.rockspec

To build without LuaRocks, check out the sources from the repository and run the following commands:

cd lcursesw
make test

Bug reports and patches are most welcome. Please use the github issue tracker (see URL at top). There is no strict coding style, but please bear in mind the following points when writing new code:

0. Follow existing code. There are a lot of useful patterns and avoided traps there.

1. 8-character indentation using TABs in C sources; 2-character indentation using SPACEs in Lua sources.
