How do i link ncurses to c++, in gcc? I am on a mac and I cant find out how to link it. I used -lncurses and -l:/Path/to/ncurses. I always get this error.
ld: library not found for -lcrt0.o

How can i fix this, please help.

Not sure if these will help you or not. (I also use a Mac)

thanks so much. I got it working. I even wrote a simple python script to speed up the process the forum thread suggested:

run.py
-------
#!/usr/bin/env python

import os, sys

os.system("gcc main.cpp -c")
os.system("clang++ main.o -lncurses -o program.bin")
os.system("chmod a+x program.bin")
os.system("/path/to/program.bin")
