History

Bill-Gray bd4cc9c616 DOSVGA port now uses the same color handling (common/pdccolor.c) as WinGUI, framebuffer/DRM, SDLn, etc.		2 weeks ago
..
CMakeLists.txt	Brought CMake's suite of demos up to date for DOS, DOSVGA, WinCon, WinGUI. Others to follow.	3 years ago
Makefile	DOSVGA Makefile now builds all demos and can build the 'tests'	2 weeks ago
Makefile.bcc	Makefiles now match chasonr version (see chasonr commit e9f10e4a77a97aa444)	6 years ago
Makefile.dmc	DOS and DOSVGA : OpenWatcom and Digital Mars builds make 'naptest.exe'	2 weeks ago
Makefile.wcc	OpenWATCOM builds in DOS, DOSVGA, and VT now allow you to set 32-bit or 16-bit chtypes	2 weeks ago
README.md	Makefiles now match chasonr version (see chasonr commit e9f10e4a77a97aa444)	6 years ago
cp437.h	Missed one : CP437 point 237 is phi, not psi, and (unrelated error) it's U+3C6, not U+36C.	4 years ago
font.h	font_bytes[] is only used within pdcscrn.c, and should be a static const array, as in chasonr's version	6 years ago
hexize.c	Initial DOSVGA platform effort, from @chasonr. Added use of a built-in font, rather than getting it from ROM.	6 years ago
mk_font.c	Small utility to convert VGA fonts to a C array suitable for 'font.h'.	6 years ago
pdcclip.c	Clipboard handling is identical for DOS, DOSVGA, VT, and the framebuffer port, so it's all in the 'common' directory now	4 years ago
pdcdisp.c	DOSVGA port now uses the same color handling (common/pdccolor.c) as WinGUI, framebuffer/DRM, SDLn, etc.	2 weeks ago
pdcdos.h	DOSVGA port now uses the same color handling (common/pdccolor.c) as WinGUI, framebuffer/DRM, SDLn, etc.	2 weeks ago
pdcgetsc.c	Bringing in chasonr's changes to allow wide-character builds and use of PSF2 fonts.	6 years ago
pdckbd.c	DOSVGA Makefile revised to simplify use of DJGPP, and to use full warnings. This turned up a few nuisance warnings, easily suppressed.	2 weeks ago
pdcscrn.c	DOSVGA port now uses the same color handling (common/pdccolor.c) as WinGUI, framebuffer/DRM, SDLn, etc.	2 weeks ago
pdcsetsc.c	silence unused variables in the DOS and DOS VGA ports	1 month ago
pdcutil.c	Much of the DOS 'utility' code (napping, beeping, getting data from/putting into memory, interrupts) is the same between DOS and DOSVGA, and shouldn't be duplicated. Those bits are now all in 'common/dosutil.c'.	3 years ago
pdcvesa.h	Initial DOSVGA platform effort, from @chasonr. Added use of a built-in font, rather than getting it from ROM.	6 years ago

PDCurses for DOS

This directory contains PDCurses source code files specific to the VGA-capable DOS port.

Building

Choose the appropriate makefile for your compiler:

  Makefile     - DJGPP
  Makefile.bcc - Borland C++
  Makefile.wcc - Watcom

For 16-bit compilers, you can change the memory MODEL as a command- line option. (Large model is the default, and recommended.) With Watcom, specifying "MODEL=f" (flat) will automatically switch to a 32-bit build.
Optionally, you can build in a different directory than the platform directory by setting PDCURSES_SRCDIR to point to the directory where you unpacked PDCurses, and changing to your target directory:
```
  set PDCURSES_SRCDIR=c:\pdcurses
```
Build it:
```
  make -f makefile
```
(For Watcom, use "wmake" instead of "make".) You'll get the library (pdcurses.lib or .a, depending on your compiler) and a lot of object files. Add the target "demos" to build the sample programs.

You can also give the optional parameter "WIDE=Y", to build the library with wide-character (Unicode) support:
```
  wmake -f Makefile.wcc WIDE=Y
```
(WIDE=Y is untested on the Borland compiler.)

The font can be set via the environment variable PDC_FONT. The font must be in the PSF format, version 2.

Distribution Status

The files in this directory are released to the public domain.
