Juan,

Thanks for your suggestions.  I went through that thread pretty thoroughly
trying all of the recommended tips and, unfortunately, nothing seemed to
work.  I also tried running that open command you cited, but there are
still no includes for ncurses in /usr/include or /usr/local/include.  In
fact /usr/include doesn't even exist on this system (mojave).
