Should that be libncurses-devel (instead of libncursesw-devel)? I tried with each separately but looks like only the non-w version works. I might be wrong here as I had a few different experiments going on. I was assuming an older ncurses (< 5.9) was not going to work but it does - thanks for the pointer. Thanks to the OP as well - I'd never looked into building tmux for Cygwin - this is awesome. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
