Christoph Michael Becker 9cc4767b2d What's in a name?
The Macintosh operating systems changed their name a few times since
version 10. We follow suite, and use the proper name whenever we refer
to a certain version, and use “macOS” as generic term, since “Mac OS X”
and “OS X” versions are already unsupported, or loose support at the end
of this year.

<para>
ncurses (new curses) is a free software emulation of curses in
System V Rel 4.0 (and above). It uses terminfo format, supports pads,
colors, multiple highlights, form characters and function key mapping.
Because of the interactive nature of this library, it will be of little
use for writing Web applications, but may be useful when writing scripts meant
<link linkend="features.commandline">using PHP from the command line</link>.
</para>
<para>
The features available, such as colors, depend on the terminal that
you are using. Use functions such as <function>ncurses_has_colors</function>,
<function>ncurses_can_change_color</function>, and
<function>ncurses_has_ic</function> to check for individual capabilities.
