This is the README file for libconio
------------------------------------

libconio is a UNIX library that uses UNIX curses to emulate (some)
functions from DOS conio.  Using libconio allows a program to exist on
both the DOS and UNIX platforms.

The libconio library grew from the FreeDOS Install program.  This is
developed under UNIX (Linux) and is "ported" to DOS every time I make
a release.  Of course, with later versions of the Install program, the
porting effort is just a matter of typing "make" under DOS.

libconio implements conio according to Borland C 3.1.

Not all functions from conio have been implemented.  I will implement
more of the functions at a later date.  I only coded those functions
that I needed under UNIX to get the FreeDOS Install program to work,
so I didn't do everything.
