The goal of Ncurses is to simplify the task of programming for character-cell terminals. A character-cell terminal is a combination of a display that shows text in a monospaced font and the keyboard and mouse that connect to it. These days, there are three common types of terminals. Actual hardware terminals, such as the DEC VT220 or the Boundless Technologies VT525, are dedicated thin clients that interact with a networked computer via a serial port. These are still somewhat common in legacy applications or industrial applications where computers would be too expensive or too fragile, but, they are rapidly becoming extinct. Second are the consoles of text-mode operating systems, such as the console of GNU/Linux when used without X/Windows or the command prompt of FreeDOS. The third type is the terminal emulation programs that some windowing systems have. The best known terminal emulation program is probably XTerm, which does a good emulation of a VT220 terminal. The Ncurses library attempts to create a standardized solution for these problems. A program needs to know which keys are pressed and when. A program needs to know a terminal’s capabilities. Can text be bold, italic, or in color? A program needs to know how to exploit a terminal’s capabilities. How does a program tell the terminal to move the cursor, to change text color, or to erase the screen?

It's dwarves vs dragons in this origin story for Enge's signature character, Morlock Ambrosius! Before history began, the dwarves of Thrymhaiam fought against the dragons as the Longest War raged in the deep roads beneath the Northhold. Now the dragons have returned, allied with the dead kings of Cor and backed by the masked gods of Fate and Chaos. The dwarves are cut off from the Graith of Guardians in the south. Their defenders are taken prisoner or corrupted by dragonspells. The weight of guarding the Northhold now rests on the crooked shoulders of a traitor's son, Morlock syr Theorn (also called Ambrosius). But his wounded mind has learned a dark secret in the hidden ways under the mountains. Regin and Fafnir were brothers, and the Longest War can never be over...

Examines poems by Spenser, Milton, Wordsworth, Chaucer, Keats, Frost, and Auden, and discusses the self-referential qualities of poetry

Examines poems by Spenser, Milton, Wordsworth, Chaucer, Keats, Frost, and Auden, and discusses the self-referential qualities of poetry

Demonstrating a poet’s imaginative ear and a critic’s range of concern, John Hollander here writes about the "melodious guile" with which poetry speaks to us. Through analysis of formal and rhetorical patterns in examples chosen from the whole spectrum of English and American poetry, Hollander describes how poems form self-reflexive parable in order to represent realms beyond themselves. "As astute a book about poetry as anyone has produced in the last five years."―David Lehman, Newsday"A lively and enlivening work of criticism."―Library Journal"Hollander, himself a fine poet, is such a generalist; and Melodious Guile, to my mind the best of his critical books, takes its place . . . among the very few enjoyable and enriching studies of how poetry works."―Alastair Fowler, London Review of Books"An incisive display of beautifully integrated erudition. John Hollander demonstrates, just as post-structuralism is waning, that there are other, more cogent theoretical terms for thinking about poetry and for a return to the reading of poetry."―Robert Alter, University of California, BerkeleyNominated for a 1988 National Book Circle Award in Criticism

A fox-hunting Anglo-Catholic aristocrat, nicknamed "The Holy Fox" by Churchill for his political guile, Halifax was one of the most prominent Tory politicians of the interwar period. As Viceroy of India, he struck a deal with Gandhi that ended the Civil Disobedience campaign. His meeting with Hitler in 1937 was a milestone in appeasement, yet just days before the infamous Munich agreement, he demanded "the destruction of Nazism." By May 1940, for many it was Halifax, not Churchill, who was the natural choice for Britain's war leader.Andrew Roberts's acclaimed biography draws on private documents to offer a nuanced reappraisal of an enigmatic, influential, and much-maligned politician.
