Originally developed in 1978, it has since evolved into multiple implementations, most notably ncurses (new curses), BSD curses, and PDCurses (a public domain curses library for non-Unix platforms). Result Variables ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This module defines the following variables: ``Curses_FOUND`` .. versionadded:: 3.3 Boolean indicating whether Curses was found. ``CURSES_INCLUDE_DIRS`` .. versionadded:: 3.1 The include directories needed to use Curses. ``CURSES_LIBRARIES`` The libraries needed to use Curses. ``CURSES_CFLAGS`` .. versionadded:: 3.16 Compiler flags which ought be given to C/C++ compilers when using Curses. ``CURSES_HAVE_CURSES_H`` Boolean indicating whether ``curses.h`` is available. ``CURSES_HAVE_NCURSES_H`` Boolean indicating whether ``ncurses.h`` is available. ``CURSES_HAVE_NCURSES_NCURSES_H`` Boolean indicating whether ``ncurses/ncurses.h`` is available. ``CURSES_HAVE_NCURSES_CURSES_H`` Boolean indicating whether ``ncurses/curses.h`` is available. Hints ^^^^^ This module accepts the following variables: ``CURSES_NEED_NCURSES`` Set this variable to ``TRUE`` before calling ``find_package(Curses)`` if the the ncurses implementation functionality is specifically required. ``CURSES_NEED_WIDE`` .. versionadded:: 3.10 Set this variable to ``TRUE`` before calling ``find_package(Curses)`` if Unicode (wide character) support is required. Deprecated Variables ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The following variables are provided for backward compatibility: ``CURSES_FOUND`` .. deprecated:: 4.2 Use ``Curses_FOUND``, which has the same value. Boolean indicating whether Curses was found. ``CURSES_INCLUDE_DIR`` .. deprecated:: 3.1 Use the ``CURSES_INCLUDE_DIRS`` variable instead. Path to a Curses include directory. ``CURSES_LIBRARY`` .. deprecated:: 2.4 Use the ``CURSES_LIBRARIES`` variable instead. Path to Curses library.
