Hello zsh-workers :))
I haven't took a deep look at the code, but I think that ncurses
is used only in the terminfo module and, obviously, in the few screen
handling routines of zsh, and I will make a suggestion: how about
switching to slang? I think that it's fully ncurses compatible, less
bloated and full featured.
I don't know if it is really needed, because I don't know the use
of ncurses throughout the zsh code, but IMHO slang is far better.
Moreover: how is curses used in zsh? Is *really* needed to make
zsh dependent of the curses library or could it statically link the
few needed parts?
I keep on with my idea of putting zsh into a tiny embedded system
O:))) Thanks in advance for you opinion :)
Raúl
