+PDCurses Demos
+==============
+
+This directory contains demonstration programs to show and test the
+capabilities of curses libraries. Some of them predate PDCurses,
+PCcurses or even pcurses/ncurses. Although some PDCurses-specific code
+has been added, all programs remain portable to other implementations
+(at a minimum, to ncurses).
+
+
+Building
+--------
+
+The demos are built by the platform-specific makefiles, in the platform
+directories. Alternatively, you can build them manually, individually,
+and link with any curses library; e.g., "cc -lcurses -orain rain.c".
+There are no dependencies besides curses and the standard C library, and
+no configuration is needed.
+
+
+Distribution Status
+-------------------
+
+Public Domain, except for rain.c and worm.c, which are under the ncurses
+license (MIT-like).
