82 Consider a program using <EM>AdaCurses</EM> to write the message "Hello, world!"
83 in the center of the screen and wait for the user to press the "q" key
84 before exiting. Populate a file <EM>hello.adb</EM> with the following.
86 with Terminal_Interface.Curses; use Terminal_Interface.Curses;
89 Visibility : Cursor_Visibility := Invisible;
90 Message : constant String := "Hello, World!";
91 done : Boolean := False;
95 Set_Echo_Mode (False);
96 Set_Cursor_Visibility (Visibility);
97 Set_Timeout_Mode (Standard_Window, Non_Blocking, 0);
99 Move_Cursor (Line => Lines / 2,
100 Column => (Columns - Message'Length) / 2);
101 Add (Str => Message);
104 c := Get_Keystroke (Standard_Window);
107 when Character'Pos ('q') => done := True;
108 when others => null;
111 Nap_Milli_Seconds (50);
119 gnatmake `adacursesw6-config --cflags` hello \
120 -largs `adacursesw6-config --libs`
122 gnatmake hello `adacursesw6-config`
123 you can compile and link the program.
