    Beginner Code::Blocks help. How do I add libraries?

    Hi,
    I'm new to programming. Ive installed Code::Blocks as it was recommended by cprogramming.com and I have an assignment to do while away from uni and their linux machines.

    I need to use curses.h but its not there. How can I add it??

    On most Linux distributions, you can install the development libraries (which include curses.h and the library files) by using the package manager and finding an appropriate "-dev" package such as "curses-dev" or "ncurses-dev" or something like that.
