I was able to get PDCurses to compile and link and to get the sample programs up using mingw32 (gcc 2.95). The following defines that used to be in Windows32/defines.h egcs 1.1.2 need to be included when compiling. I temporarily placed them in wincon.h. /* MOUSE_EVENT_RECORD structure */ #define FROM_LEFT_1ST_BUTTON_PRESSED (1) #define RIGHTMOST_BUTTON_PRESSED (2) #define FROM_LEFT_2ND_BUTTON_PRESSED (4) #define FROM_LEFT_3RD_BUTTON_PRESSED (8) #define FROM_LEFT_4TH_BUTTON_PRESSED (16) #define DOUBLE_CLICK (2) #define MOUSE_MOVED (1) I think this problem will be corrected in future updates of mingw32. I still received several warnings, but once the defines were added I was able to create the libraries and sample executables. Hope this helps.
