Building on Mac M1 w/ homebrew installed ncurses package #173

Closed mikepjb closed 1 year ago

Hi, I've recently built this project (thanks for making it!)

It didn't work initially until I softlinked the ncurses library like so: sudo mkdir /usr/local/opt && ln -s /opt/homebrew/Cellar/ncurses/6.3 /usr/local/opt/ncurses

On M1 machines, the install directory is different so that's why the linking above was needed.

What's a good way to address this to make this easier for people in future? Is there already a way to override the location e.g make NCURSES_PATH='x' that I'm missing?
