Who still uses curses?

Hmm, I think irssi does, I use nano for editing and that uses curses, hmm... I think lots of other programs does too.

EDIT: Huuh, who said anything about curses? I didn't pay attention first, but this makes no use of curses that I can see.

People use curses because they don't know better in TUI libraries. I'm not sure there are any widely available alternatives to it.

A p2p TUI-based voicechat without complicated server setup that requires root access is VERY welcome to me. We're really missing something like this in the *NIX world.

Yes, that's why I shared it here, I still have to try it tough, but it looks very promising! Big Grin
