I ported PDCurses to D. This is the first time ever I ported something, so 
sorry if things are a bit unwieldy or ugly.

Example:

import curses;
int main(char[][] args) {
  initscr();
  for(int x = 0; x < 10; x++) {
    flash();
  }
  return 0;
}

Haven't played with it a lot yet. I hope I can code my roguelike with this 
:) Enjoy.

Thanks for this port.  However, I get the following errors when trying 
to build with DMD 1.18 on Windows:

C:\dmd\src>dmd curses.d
curses.d(14): non-constant expression *(&Mouse_status)
curses.d(15): non-constant expression *((&Mouse_status+4))
curses.d(16): non-constant expression *((&Mouse_status+16)) & 7
curses.d(17): non-constant expression *((&Mouse_status+16)) & 8
curses.d(18): non-constant expression *((&Mouse_status+16)) & 16

I worked through this by commenting out the code (I don't need mouse 
support in my app) but could you tell me what version of DMD you managed 
to compile it with?

Thanks :)

Strangely enough it just happily compiles for me in the latest version, 
1.18. Or well, I didn't compile it, I just included it (since it's just a 
bunch of C imports).

Also note that there are some functions that are actually macros, I didn't 
port those, that would require me to insert those functions back in the lib 
again and do all that boring work. I didn't realise porting can be such a 
pain sometimes.

How odd.  While compilations works for me now in 1.18 I also get some 
linker errors.  Since it works fine for you, it's probably just a 
problem with my DMD setup.  Thanks anyway :)

I've just started to code a roguelike, and i noticed the same errors with the
mouse functions, but only when using build.exe , not a straight compile with
dmd.exe! hope this helps someone out, as i'm not up to the job of fixing it
myself (yet), as i'm a D newbie.
