- In the mid-1990s when the X/Open Curses document was written, there
- were still systems using older, less capable curses libraries (aside
- from the BSD curses library which was not relevant to X/Open because it
- did not meet the criteria for <EM>base</EM> <EM>curses</EM>). The document explained the
- term "enhanced" as follows:
-
- <STRONG>o</STRONG> Shading is used to identify <EM>X/Open</EM> <EM>Enhanced</EM> <EM>Curses</EM> material,
- relating to interfaces included to provide enhanced capabilities
- for applications originally written to be compiled on systems
- based on the UNIX operating system. Therefore, the features
- described may not be present on systems that conform to <STRONG>XPG4</STRONG> <STRONG>or</STRONG>
- <STRONG>to</STRONG> <STRONG>earlier</STRONG> <STRONG>XPG</STRONG> <STRONG>releases</STRONG>. The relevant reference pages may
- provide additional or more specific portability warnings about
- use of the material.
