- I highly recommend that you try to stick with the Curses library. It
- is "mostly" compatible across several operating systems. I know of
- versions on UNIX, VMS, and MS-DOS. A good book on Curses will help. Using
- Curses will be much simpler than attempting to write code from scratch to
- handle different terminal types.
