Just a small section on how to actually build ttyplot if neccessary.

The installation information for ncurses I took from https://www.ostechnix.com/how-to-install-ncurses-library-in-linux/.

I hope the installation instructions for the other operating systems (that are not ArchLinux) are correct.

I tested it under ArchLinux and there it was fine.

Hope this helps.

People who do not know how to install and compile with curses should download and use a pre-compiled binary which I provide. Also I have added a Makefile so build instructions are not required any more.
