I've been using gcc to compile some simple applications for NT win98 and
win95 for automating machinery. I have a problem on one screen where you
can't read the command.com screen (windows98) clearly, so I loaded
ncurses, redid the application so it the text is very bright and
colorful even on the poor screen. Very nice.
The problem is, I was up to now only needing to place the cygwin1.dll on
each machine I put a program on, and that's all, with the exception of
the executable and miscellaneous setup files. I thought I would only
have to place the cygncurses7.dll on the machines as well.
I moved the executable and placed cygncurses7.dll on a machine, tried
it, and got "Error opening terminal: cygwin". I read references to this
in the mailing lists, which say do an "install" on each machine with
multiple packages using setup.
For a number of reasons I wish to avoid this, the least of which is they
are not on the net.
What is the least amount of files I need, and where should I put them
for ncurses to identify the terminal on the machines I need to put my
executable? Can you help?
Thanks
Terry Dabbs
