+dnl Curses detection: Munged from Midnight Commander's configure.in
dnl
-dnl Called after AC_CHECK_CURSES after AC_PROG_CC
+dnl What it does:
+dnl =============
dnl
-dnl Will adjust CURSES_INCLUDEDIR, CURSES_LIBS, and possibly CFLAGS
-dnl Also do AC_SUBST on CURSES_INCLUDEDIR and CURSES_LIBS
+dnl - Determine which version of curses is installed on your system
+dnl and set the -I/-L/-l compiler entries and add a few preprocessor
+dnl symbols
+dnl - Do an AC_SUBST on the CURSES_INCLUDEDIR and CURSES_LIBS so that
+dnl @CURSES_INCLUDEDIR@ and @CURSES_LIBS@ will be available in
+dnl Makefile.in's
+dnl - Modify the following configure variables (these are the only
+dnl curses.m4 variables you can access from within configure.in)
+dnl CURSES_INCLUDEDIR - contains -I's and possibly -DRENAMED_CURSES if
+dnl an ncurses.h that's been renamed to curses.h
+dnl is found.
+dnl CURSES_LIBS - sets -L and -l's appropriately
+dnl CFLAGS - if --with-sco, add -D_SVID3
+dnl has_curses - exports result of tests to rest of configure
dnl
-dnl Add this to acconfig.h:
+dnl Usage:
+dnl ======
+dnl 1) Add lines indicated below to acconfig.h
+dnl 2) call AC_CHECK_CURSES after AC_PROG_CC in your configure.in
+dnl 3) Instead of #include <curses.h> you should use the following to
+dnl properly locate ncurses or curses header file
dnl
-dnl /*=== Curses variables swiped from Midnight commander's config ===*/
-dnl
+dnl #if defined(USE_NCURSES) && !defined(RENAMED_NCURSES)
+dnl #include <ncurses.h>
+dnl #else
+dnl #include <curses.h>
+dnl #endif
+dnl
+dnl 4) Make sure to add @CURSES_INCLUDEDIR@ to your preprocessor flags
+dnl 5) Make sure to add @CURSES_LIBS@ to your linker flags or LIBS
+dnl
+dnl Notes with automake:
+dnl - call AM_CONDITIONAL(HAS_CURSES, test "$has_curses" = true) from
+dnl configure.in
+dnl - your Makefile.am can look something like this
+dnl -----------------------------------------------
