>Description:

curses.h defines ACS_DIAMOND, but not ACS_HEART, ACS_CLUB, or ACS_SPADE.
(presumably because someone sometime wanted ACS_DIAMOND as a bullet
point character or the like)

This makes the user interface of canfield(6) and other card games suck.

>How-To-Repeat:

grep

>Fix:

Add them and add the necessary bits to terminfo? Many terminals and
terminal fonts do have glyphs for all four suits.
