    Shell graphic program

    How can I create a program, which will have buttons, text fields, etc. in a shell (like Linux Slackware install, etc.)..?

    Thanks for any help in advance!

    I'd probably look at using ncurses - http://web.cs.mun.ca/~rod/ncurses/ncurses.html
    and one or more of it's dependent libraries like panels, menus and forms
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Thanks for link!

    But I have another question: Is it possible to use Ncurses in C++?
