  Date......: 03/01/99

  Purpose - crt unit replacement plus OOP windows using ncurses.

  NOTE: All of the crt procedures & functions have been replaced with ncurses
  driven versions. This makes the ncurses library a little easier to use in a
  Pascal program and benefits from terminal independence.

-------------------------------<< REVISIONS >>--------------------------------
  Ver  |   Date   | Prog| Description
-------+----------+-----+-----------------------------------------------------
  1.00 | 03/01/99 | kjw | Initial Release.
       | 03/22/99 | kjw | Added nDelWindow(), delwin() does not nil pointer.
  1.01 | 11/22/99 | kjw | Added the following: nEcho, ClrEol, ClrBot, InsLine,
                        | DelLine, Delay, nClrEol, nClrBot, nInsLine, nDelLine,
                        | nRefresh, nScroll, nDrawBox, nNewWindow, nWinColor,
                        | nWriteScr, nFrame & some functions for returning
                        | line drawing character values.
  1.02 | 11/26/99 | kjw | Added nKeypressed().
  1.03 | 12/01/99 | kjw | Added global boolean nIsActive.
  1.04 | 12/03/99 | kjw | 1) Added procedures nHline, nVLine, & nWriteAC.
                        | 2) Changed all the line draw character functions
                        | (i.e., nHL, nVL) to return the longint value from
                        | ncurses rather than the character value (which was
                        | not very useful!). Now these can be passed to
                        | nWriteAC() to correctly write the line drawing
                        | characters.
                        | 3) Added more of the ACS characters.
  1.05 | 12/08/99 | kjw | 1) StartCurses() is now done as part of the unit
                        | initialization block. EndCurses() is done via an
                        | exit procedure.
                        | 2) nIsActive is now a function (safer!).
                        | 3) Added panel unit for windowing.
                        | 4) Added tnWindow object.
  1.10 | 12/12/99 | kjw | Added nSEdit().
  1.11 | 12/12/99 | kjw | Added Special property to tEC object. Now any normal
                        | character can trigger sedit to exit.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  2.00 | 12/13/99 | kjw | nCrt renamed to oCrt. A new nCrt has been created
                        | which is a drop-in replacement for the FPC crt unit.
                        | oCrt contains all of nCrt plus the OOP extensions.
                        | All of the common code is in ncrt.inc.
  2.01 | 12/15/99 | kjw | 1) A tnWindow object now becomes the target for
                        | stdout following Init & Show. A Hide will put the
                        | target back to stdscr.
                        | 2) Added nSetActiveWin() to manually pick a target
                        | window for stdout.
  2.02 | 12/15/99 | kjw | 1) PutFrame applied keypad to stdscr instead of sub.
                        | 2) See ncrt.inc
  2.03 | 12/16/99 | kjw | 1) See ncrt.inc
                        | 2) Added shift/f-key constants.
  2.04 | 01/04/00 | kjw | See ncrt.inc
  2.05 | 01/06/00 | kjw | 1) See ncrt.inc.
                        | 2) Added boolean internal_fwrite. FWrite was failing
                        | when trying to write outside of the active window.
                        | 3) nSEdit was not handling tec.firsttime correctly
                        | when a tec.special was processed.
  2.06 | 01/11/00 | kjw | See ncrt.inc.
  2.07 | 01/31/00 | kjw | 1) See ncrt.inc.
                        | 2) Added getcolor, getframecolor, getheadercolor
                        | methods to tnWindow.
  2.08 | 06/09/00 | kjw | 1) Added Picture property to tEC object. This is
                        | used for picture input masking in nSEdit.
                        | 2) Added nCheckPxPicture() function.
                        | 3) nSEdit() changed to use picture input masking.
                        | See pxpic.txt for a description of the picture
                        | string format.

  2.08.01 | 06/11/2000 | kjw
          | Fixed the spin cycle problem in nCheckPXPicture.
  2.09.00 | 06/16/2000 | kjw
          | 1) nSEdit renamed to nEdit. Now nSEdit just calls nEdit() for
          | compatibility.
          | 2) Added overloaded nEdit functions for Integer, LongInt, and
          | Real types.
          | 3) Changed nEdit() embedding of control characters to preface
          | with a ^P. Also now uses a highlight attribute for the control
          | characters.
          | 4) Added control character cursor control to nEdit().
          | 5) Added Esc/1..0 = F1..F10 to nEdit().
          | 6) Added '@' to match set in pxpic.inc.
          | 7) tnWindow.Align was not positioning properly. Off by one.
          | 8) tnWindow.Init used wrong pointer for keypad and intrflush.
          | 9) tnWindow.Edit was messing up ec.Special.
  2.09.01 | 06/16/2000 | kjw
          | 1) nStdScr (tnWindow) added and initialized at unit startup.
          | nStdScr can be used for a default full screen window.
          | 2) nEdit overloaded to work without a window pointer. It works
          | with the currently active window.
  2.10.00 | 06/23/2000 | kjw
          | 1) Added character mapping to the tEC object. This includes the
          | ChMap property and the AddChMap() and ClrChMap() methods.
          | 2) Added AppendMode property to the tEC object. The character
          | typed in nEdit() is always appended to the current string
          | regardless of cursor position. Useful when ExitMode is true.
          | 3) tnWindow.Done was not re-assigning an ActiveWn.
          | 4) nEdit LeftArrow was allowing < x.
          | 5) Added nEditNumber() function.
          | 6) Added nEditDate() function.
          | 7) I made a command decision and renamed the tEC.FirstTime
          | property to tEC.ClearMode as it is more descriptive.
  2.11.00 | 1) Cleaned up some loose ends with 2.10.
          | 2) Some more overloading
          | 3) Removed tnWindow.readln, write, and writeln methods.
          | 4) See ncrt.inc.
  2.12.00 | 1) Remove the "n" from the tnWindow.editxxx functions for
          | consistancy. Procedurals are prefaced with an "n". Object methods
          | are not.
          | 2) Procedural FWrite renamed to nFWrite.
          | 3) tEC object type renamed to tnEC.
          | 4) Added nMakeWindow(), a one line procedural wrapper for
          | tnWindow.Init and tnWindow.PutHeader.
          | 5) Added GetX, GetY, IsFramed methods to tnWindow;
          | 6) Fixed nFWrite for too long strings;
          | 7) tnWindow.Align was wrong when justify was none.
  2.13.00 | 06/30/00 | kjw | See ncrt.inc
  2.14.00 | 07/05/00 | kjw | See ncrt.inc
  2.15.00 | 07/12/00 | kjw |
          | 1) Renamed IsBold to nIsBold. Renamed SetColorPair to nSetColorPair.
          | 2) Added tnMenu object (not functional);
          | 07/17/00 | kjw |
          | 2) Argh!! Align method had another mistake. Changed x/y=1 to =0.
          | 3) Added nShowMessage() function.
          | 4) tnMenu is now minimally functional.
          | 07/25/00 | kjw |
          | 1) tnMenu fully functional for current level.
  2.16.00 | 08/14/2000 | kjw |
          | 1) Added Get/SetMark(), IsActive(), IsValid(), IsAssigned(),
          | SetIndex() to tnMenu.
          | 08/18/2000 | kjw |
          | 1) Added nkXXX constants for all(?) extended keys.
          | 2) Changed all uses of extended keys to use new nkXXX's.
          | 3) Edit overloaded to return a nkXXX in ch rather that a char.
          | 4) Resize method added to tnWindow.
          | 5) AddChMap overloaded for preferred (easier) use with nkXXX's.
          | 08/24/2000 | kjw |
          | 1) Added nReadScr, nReadScrStr, nReadScrColor, nWriteScrStr,
          | nGrabScreen, nPopScreen, nReleaseScreen.
          | 2) Fixed some trouble with PrevWn accuracy.
  2.16.01 | 05/26/2009 | kjw |
          | 1) Corrected error with tnWindow.PutFrame and wattr_get. Recent
          | updates to ncurses and ocrt by the FreePascal team introduced an
          | error with tnWindow.PutFrame's use of wattr_get.

  Map a keystroke to another character, normal or extended.

  The maps are 4 character strings interpreted as 2 sets of character
  pairs that represent the following:

  1st char - If it is #0 then it is an extended char. Use the 2nd
             character to identify.
  2nd char - Only used if 1st char is #0.

  The first pair of the string is the actual key pressed.
  The second pair is what that key should be become.

  #0#59 = F1, extended key
  #59#0 = ; , normal key

  So a map of #0#59#59#0 maps the F1 key to the ; key,
          and #0#59#0#60 maps the F1 key to the F2 key,
          and #0#59#0#0 maps the F1 key to a null.

   Examples:
     #0#59#0#60 = map F1 to F2
     #1#0#0#59  = map ^A to F1
     #0#59#1#0  = map F1 to ^A
     #0#59#0#0  = map F1 to ^@ (null)
     #0#0#0#59  = map ^@ to F1
     #97#0#65#0 = map a to A

  If decimal columns are specified, then pressing <space> will enter the
  decimal character (. or ,). A background string can be specified that
  fills the empty spaces.
