Porting an ncurses app to Win32?
by Christer Enfors

I've written a simple ncurses application in C for AIX 5.3 that mainly
uses the menu library. Now I've been tasked with investigating the
possibilities of porting it to Windows XP.

How would I go about doing this? The actual porting of the code
shouldn't be a problem, but I'm not sure how to set up a C development
platform on Windows (I've always worked in *NIX). What compiler should I
use? Is there a native Windows gcc that I could use? Does ncurses even
work on Windows? I've managed to compile my application on Windows using
Cygwin, but for the production version it would be better not having to
rely on Cygwin.

I've searched this mailing list, but I didn't find anything useful.

Thanks in advance.
