Talk:Newt (programming library)

newt and mouse
newt's using only gpm, without a way to use it in a terminal emulator (gpm's limitations have been commented on frequently -- see for example this) TEDickey (talk) 19:34, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

How does it differ/compare to ncurses?
This isn't answered in the article. --109.192.198.207 (talk) 11:18, 5 April 2020 (UTC)


 * It probably won't be (if reliable sources are used), due to the absence of documentation for newt TEDickey (talk) 12:24, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

What does "Operating system: Linux, Cross-platform (Live CD)" mean?
This blames to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Newt_%28programming_library%29&diff=prev&oldid=262134380 but I don't think it makes any sense at all. Does it run under Linux but also (NetBSD booted from a CD)? What's the CD thing mean at all? Is it parroting upstream's marketing? The edit doesn't have any refs and neither does the current text.
