EGL users on the supported UNIX® platforms have the ability to run their ConsoleUI application using either a graphical display mode or a UNIX curses mode.
Graphical display mode
To run a ConsoleUI application in graphical display mode, you must make sure that the EGL curses library is not located in the Library Path environment variable of your running shell. This is the default mode.
UNIX curses mode
To run a ConsoleUI application in UNIX curses mode, you must have the appropriate platform-specific EGL curses library in the Library Path environment variable of your running shell. The EGL curses libraries must be downloaded from the EGL Support website.
