Title Latest version of ncurses for Watcom 10.6
Ref. No. QNX.000009630
Category(ies) Development
Issue Is there a newer version of the ncurses library than the one we received when we purchased QNX and Watcom10.6 (ver 1.8+)?  According to the maintainer, version 4.2 _should_ be available for QNX4.
Solution The latest patch for Watcom 10.6 which includes updates to the ncurse library, can be found in the /updates/watcom10.6/wcc/Released/ directory as part of the wcc10.6.patchB.tar.F file.

From the wcc10.6.patchB.changes file in this directory:

Ncurses
-------
- brings ncurses up to revision 4.1 patch 971220
