NAME
libcurses - screen functions with "optimal" cursor motion

SYNOPSIS
cc [ flags ] files -lcurses -ltermcap [ libraries ]

DESCRIPTION
These routines give the user a method of updating screens with
reasonable optimization. They keep an image of the current screen,
and the user sets up an image of a new one. Then the refresh()
tells the routines to make the current screen look like the new
one. In order to initialize the routines, the routine initscr()
must be called before any of the other routines that deal with
windows and screens are used. The routine endwin() should be
called before exiting.
