Bug#615920: ITP: libncursesada -- Ada binding for the ncurses text user interface library



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Nicolas Boulenguez <nicolas.boulenguez@free.fr>

* Package name    : libncursesada
  Version         : 5.8-1
  Upstream Author : Juergen Pfeifer
* URL             : http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ncurses/
* License         : GPLv3
  Programming Lang: Ada
  Description     : Ada binding for the ncurses text user interface library

NcursesAda allows programmers to use the Ncurses library within the Ada
language. This means programming panels, colors, forms in text terminals or
emulators.

This binding has been part of the ncurses source for a long time now, but
it was ignored in Debian since an Ada compiler is available on less
architectures than ncurses. The upstream authors have made a significant
effort in 5.8 release so that it may be packaged separately.
