I am not sure if there is much desire, but I would be glad to assist in the
testing of it, plus it would help me to learn about the unix programming
stuff which will help where I work. Is that of interest at all. I have a
win2k box with cygwin on it, and also a redhat 9 box that I can use. Those
two boxes are both mine.

Thanks Daniel,
 	I noticed at the first link you gave, for ncurses, that it lists 
cygwin.  What's the status of deploying a binary built with cygwin?  Is 
there a large framework that needs to acoompany the .exe?
