 Pcomm, to my knowledge, has not yet been ported. I am currently working on 
 the task, but am being slowed down because the CURSES utilities are
 ancient. Thus I am going the find the source to curses somewhere on the
 net and port that. I found it once. When tha tis done I will release both
 the proted pcomm, and the new curseslib.

 If someone has done ANY of this please reply to me via e-mail. Save me
 the pain. :)
