With node v0.2.4, OSX 10.6.5, and this latest version of ncurses, the examples worked out of the box and nothing extra had to be done.

============

* [node.js](http://nodejs.org/) -- v0.1.94+
* A compatible terminal (OSX users see the note below)

To build node-curses:

node-waf configure build


Special note for unknown terminals
==================================

If your terminal is not in terminfo's database, you'll get this error while attempting to execute any of the node-ncurses examples: "Error opening terminal: xxxxx."
This error has been known to at least occur on OSX 10.6.* with the default Terminal.app. The fix for this is to add your terminal to the terminfo database like so:

mkdir ~/.terminfo
infocmp -L > foo
tic foo
rm foo

If no errors occurred while executing those commands, then you are all set and should be able to execute node-ncurses examples now. If not, send me a message and let me know.
