adacurses\-config \- helper script for AdaCurses libraries
.TP
\fB\-\-help\fR
prints a list of the \fBadacurses\-config\fP script's options.
+.PP
+If no options are given, \fBadacurses\-config\fP prints the combination
+of
+\fB\-\-cflags\fR and
+\fB\-\-libs\fR
+that \fBgnatmake\fP expects (see example).
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.PP
+For example, supposing that you want to compile the "Hello World!"
+program for AdaCurses.
+Make a file named "hello.adb":
+.RS
+.nf
+.ft CW
+with Terminal_Interface.Curses; use Terminal_Interface.Curses;
+
+procedure Hello is
+
+ Visibility : Cursor_Visibility := Invisible;
+ done : Boolean := False;
+ c : Key_Code;
+
+begin
+
+ Init_Screen;
+ Set_Echo_Mode (False);
+
+ Set_Cursor_Visibility (Visibility);
+ Set_Timeout_Mode (Standard_Window, Non_Blocking, 0);
+
+ Move_Cursor (Line => Lines / 2, Column => (Columns - 12) / 2);
+ Add (Str => "Hello World!");
+
+ while not done loop
+
+ c := Get_Keystroke (Standard_Window);
+ case c is
+ when Character'Pos ('q') => done := True;
+ when others => null;
+ end case;
+
+ Nap_Milli_Seconds (50);
+ end loop;
+
+ End_Windows;
+
+end Hello;
+.fi
+.RE
+.PP
+Then, using
+.RS
+.ft CW
+gnatmake `adacurses-config --cflags` hello -largs `adacurses-config --libs`
+.ft
+.RE
+.PP
+or (simpler):
+.RS
+.ft CW
+gnatmake hello `adacurses-config`
+.ft
+.RE
+.PP
+you will compile and link the program.
