Hi,

I uploaded a new package: mingw32-ncurses 6.0. You can install it with 
mingw-get.

ncurses 6.0 improved a lot for Windows since 5.9, but there are still 
issues (which are not in PDCurses).
* To make it work in Console(2) you have to set the NCURSES_CONSOLE2 
environment variable.
* It doesn't work at all in ConsoleZ.
* You may see tremble in the screen while it is redrawing.

Advantage over PDCurses:
* support for Unicode combining characters.

regards,
