Not working on Windows 10 (Anaconda Python distribution) #20

Use of another library than curses would fix it, see paragraph 5: https://docs.python.org/3.3/howto/curses.html

Looks like you'll need to download a wheel and install the python curses package.

Go to https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ And download either curses‑2.2‑cp36‑cp36m‑win32.whl curses‑2.2‑cp36‑cp36m‑win_amd64.whl Depending on if you're running python 32 or 64 bit Run a console, CD to the directory with the whl package, and run py3 -m pip install [package name] py3 might be a different command on your system, whatever you use to run python3

actually, after writing this, I realise that curses might not even work in Windows... Let me know if it works. Maybe in cygwin?

jerry2605 commented 6 years ago

confirmed, after installed. It works in win10.

How can I let it run in Jypyter notebook or iPython?
