A guide to the use of Notcurses for creating vivid TUIs with character graphics.
Up-to-date (errata-corrected) PDF is available here.
A paperback version is available for purchase. It was published April 2, 2020. I upload a new copy whenever I discover major errata.
Errata in the First Edition
*All known issues have been corrected in the currently-available book*
- The very first day it was available for purchase (2020-04-02), all copies were printed with a large grey "DRAFT" watermark on each page. If you have such a copy, and would like to exchange it for one without this flaw, email me and we'll work it out.
- I then uploaded a version which had a phantom fifth chapter entitled "A very cursory introduction to fullscreen mode". This chapter does not yet exist. It ought not have occupied a page with its title, and I am incompetent.
- The Tetris case study takes a lock in the wrong place. Tetris::Ticker() ought read:
do{
mtx_.lock();
ms = msdelay_;
rather than
mtx_.lock();
do{
ms = msdelay_;
- The reference for Tetris::MoveLeft was incorrectly defined, leading to a "??" reference at the beginning of section 15.2. It is now the proper "83".
