sciteco/m4/ax_with_ncurses.m4, branch v2.5.2

fixup: require wide-char support even on PDCurses and document new requirements

2026-01-31T13:38:08+00:00

Also, Scinterm had to be updated again since NetBSD curses stores up to 8 wchar_t per cell.

AX_WITH_NCURSES: support $CURSES_CFLAGS and $CURSES_LIBS

2025-10-06T15:40:55+00:00

* We wouldn't detect the correct flags (ax_cv_curses_enhanced and ax_cv_curses_color)
  when CURSES_CFLAGS and CURSES_LIBS are given.
* Allows to force ncurses to the SDK/system one when building
  for OS X (20-freebsd14-osx-sciteco).

moved most resources to fmsbw.de

2025-09-21T14:30:15+00:00

* The new official homepage is https://sciteco.fmsbw.de/
* My new contact address is rhaberkorn AT fmsbw.de.
* The scintilla-mirror is now also on https://git.fmsbw.de/scintilla-mirror/
* Added CI script for my server on fmsbw.de that builds
  the website.
  It's run in a FreeBSD container, but does not currently
  distribute FreeBSD binaries.

AX_WITH_NCURSES: also check for NCURSEN_VERSION

2025-08-19T14:32:35+00:00

If we find libncursesw or libncurses, but without pkg-config and if
ncurses does not install its curses.h into the standard search path,
we might theoretically pick up another compatible Curses' curses.h.
Better guard against this.

curses: fixed configuration for native netbsd-curses and ncurses (several corner cases)

2025-08-18T23:30:36+00:00

* pkg-config check for `ncurses` fails if it failed previously for `ncursesw`.
  This is the case e.g. for ncurses from NetBSD's pkgsrc.
* No longer assume that any libncurses is not enhanced (X/Open compatible).
* SciTECO and Scinterm require to find a curses.h in the include paths.
  The ncurses check must therefore not be limited to the first best
  ncurses/ncurses.h and the like.
* We now always check for X/Open compatibility and always require
  a curses.h in the standard directories or as given by pkg-config.
* AX_WITH_CURSES was radically rewritten and is now called AX_WITH_NCURSES.
* --with-interface=netbsd-curses gets its own detection code.
  It always requires a curses.h in the standard paths and a libcurses.
  It should now be fixed for real NetBSD installations if the ncurses
  port is installed as well.
* Unified all of the curses-arguments to CURSES_CFLAGS and CURSES_LIBS.
  There is no reason we need PDCURSES_CFLAGS, XCURSES_CFLAGS etc.
