Installation of Procinfo
-Install Procinfo by running the following commands:
+Compile Procinfo:
-make LDLIBS=-lncurses &&
-make install
+make LDLIBS=-lncurses
+
+The -lncurses switch overwrites the
+default switch, -ltermcap. This is done
+because libtermcap is declared obsolete in favor of libncurses.
+
+Finish installing the package:
+
+make install
