Genscreen is a C/C++ code generator for building screens using the ncurses library. It allows you to lay out screen designs using any text editor, then run the text file through Genscreen to create a ready-to-compile C/C++ source file.

Use it for application building, prototyping, and as a great time saver. In any application using curses under UNIX or Linux the largest part of coding time is spent setting up the screen prompting, input and data presentation fields. Genscreen automates all this. Genscreen eliminates the tedium and time used in writing curses code for input fields.

Ever design an application you thought was just right only to have the customer say they want it in a different way? "Just a few small changes..."? No problem with Genscreen . It's easy to change a screen by simply retyping the lay out file and regenerating the screen. In minutes you can return with the changed prototype lay-out ready to run and ready for approval (or more changes!).
