I have been trying to install pdcurses for a long while, so I decided to just finally ask it on stack overflow.
Computer: windows 7
Language: C
Program: code::blocks
Compiler: MinGW: GNU GCC Compiler
Library: PDCurses 3.4
Is there any step by step guide to install the PDCurses library?
I have already tried using the console to make .a file, but I get an error after using the
"mingw32-make -f mingwin32.mak" command.
C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\pdcurs34\win32>mingw32-make -f mingwin32.mak

Thanks in advance
It looks like mingwin32.mak has a problem with directories that have a space in them. Try putting the lbrary in a directory without a space. – interjay
Interjay's solution worked.
