library problems

[Vilvox]

Hello,

I try to compile a program using lncurves.
Here is the error message i got :
$ g++ ed.cpp -lncurves -o ed
/usr//bin/ld: cannot find -lncurves
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

However, i checked i have /usr/lib/libncurses.so
How to solve it ?

thanks,

Vincent

This is not a question about the C++ language, so
not topical here. But here's a guess:
/usr//bin/ld: cannot find -lncurves

curves != curses. curves != libncurses. Check your
spellings.

If you still have trouble, check support resources
or newsgroups about ncurses. ncurses is not part
of standard C++.

AFAIK, "Curves" is a women's health club franchise. :-)

Could it have something to do with the fact that one of them is named
libncur[s]es.so and you use -lncur[v]es? You know, every letter of
the name is important...

Where can i find such libraries, please ?
