Where can I find a complete reference of the ncurses C API? [closed]

Answer 1

You can buy this book. I have it and recommend: John Strang, Programming with curses, O'Reilly, ISBN 0-937175-02-1

The best online source information: http://invisible-island.net/ncurses/ncurses-intro.html

I learned a lot about ncurses reading the minicom source code and the iptraf linux network monitor.

Answer 2

I found this question a while back, but none of the answers so far answer the original question. The complete freely available API reference is available through the . . .

NCURSES MAN PAGES

Answer 3

I've found the book "Programmer's Guide to nCurses" (Dan Gookin, published by Wiley) invaluable as it includes both tutorial and an impressive reference to the API.

There's also the O'Reilly Nutshell guide "Programming with Curses" which isn't too bad.

Answer 4

The documentation that comes with the library actually isn't that bad.
