Description-en: ruby extension for the ncurses C library
All C functions are wrapped by module functions of the module "Ncurses",
with exactly the same name. Additionally, C functions expecting a WINDOW* as
their first argument can also be called as methods of the "Ncurses::WINDOW"
class.
.
The panel library (for support of overlapping windows) is also wrapped, in
the module "Ncurses::Panel".
