Re: Using UTF-8 with Ncurses / Xterm ....

[Brian Raiter]

Just to provide more information (or confusion) ...

On my system, the wide version of the header file is located at
/usr/include/ncursesw/ncurses.h. There is no ncursesw.h anywhere. In
order to make it all work properly, I had to:

1. #include <ncurses.h> (not ncursesw.h); and
2. add "-D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED" and "-I/usr/include/ncursesw" to my
   compile commandline.

(And, of course, link with -lncursesw.)

When I did that, Ben's sample program worked fine.
