MacOS has been ready for decades, but it hasnвЂ™t exactly been tearing up the mainstream.ДЄnd why is everyone so concerned with popularity? Is something better because it is more popular? If Linux gets just 10% of the desktop market. So just because Linux is ready, doesnвЂ™t mean that its going to necessarily be adopted. Of course, adoption lags behind readyness. Now, whether Linux is being adopted by these people is a seperate issue entirely.

#NCURSES CLEAR SCREEN WINDOWS#

The only thing its really not ready for are intermediate and advanced Windows users - those that have no problems playing with the registry, but blanch at editing a text file. Its probably even ready for the lowest-end home users, who have somebody knowledgable to do their tech support anyway. Workstations, educational institutions, corporate offices, kiosks, internet terminals, etc.

Linux is already ready for many desktop roles. There is a major distinction between being ready for the desktop, and being on the desktop. ) yeah yeah, iвЂ™m not talkin about that, iвЂ™m simply talking about common libs, backword compatibility etc where linux will some day will agree(not reach coz, she can if she wants it!) Some will say, Lindows(and some other distros) has that, and some will tell about apt-rpm,apt-get etc. I do have computer engineer friends of my own, they are like those people on most of the subjectsвЂ¦well i can convince my friends sometimes but those who works on GNU linux canвЂ™t be convinced Well yeah, see? most of the world is not on those people side is it a suprise?

#NCURSES CLEAR SCREEN INSTALL#

If it was simple to just download a new software and double click install it like in ms windows(even in win95 that was avaible) or mac osx, i guess linux would have at least 3-4times the user she has now.Д«ut no, people kept sayin how easy its to compile from source, how great its to install from scrach(gentoo etc.),people kept telling how fun its to wait for hours to compile simply a OS(most people in this planet still uses dial up, including me). And that is something common to all OSвЂ™s like it or not. Windows, OSX, Linux вЂ“ its all the same if you dont want to have to learn. Its the people who dont want to use the machine as a computer/tool that they are referring to.

#NCURSES CLEAR SCREEN MANUAL#

Anyone willing to read a windows manual, for any product, could read the same type of manual for Linux and do fine. As they wont RTFM for that either.Д«asically i think they are referring to the people who still have their DVD/VCR still flashing 12:00. Most users refuse to read any Windows help files so having them use linux is insane. I know corporate systems people that dont know windows 2000/XP very well either (amazing in my opinion). But that isnt to great either (ask anyone who had to call a support line). I think its the support infastructure that is in place. Was windows 3.1//XP ready for all home users? I wouldnвЂ™t say so, you may find marketing research from our favorite PR comp. Do i still use Windows? Of course, but only for work stuff. A quick search on converting terminfo files to termcap points to tic utility.IвЂ™ve been using linux as my main desktop for years. Now either we rebuild bash with ncurses support or build this file. sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S: No such file or directory.Д x00000000004cf65c in tgetent () (gdb ) p $eax $1 = -1ДЄs expected there is no /etc/termcap, also as per manpages termcap is deprecated, applications should use terminfo, which is part of ncurses.

Now to dig into why _rl_term_clrpag is NULL, it is a global variable initialised via the _rl_init_terminal_io function.
