FFI documentation

Hello,

Let's say I would like to create a binding to ncurses library.
Is there any documentation on how to do it properly?
Or at least do you have any advice to do it the right way?

I have no real knowledge on how the unified ffi work. So
any documentation is welcome.

Thanks in advance. :)

Hi Julien!

Esteban L. wrote a chapter on it:
https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/view/Books/job/PharoBookWorkInProgress/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/book-result/UnifiedFFI/UnifiedFFI.pdf

It would be great to have a Help, accessible in the HelpBrowser in Pharo.

Cheers,
Alexandre
