I am using curses on a Sun 3/60 and some ascii (vt100) terminals to 
develop a screen editor.  The problem seems to be with cursor positioning.
I am using wmove() and mvwaddstr() for moving the cursor and writing
output to the screen.  My program specifies the correct x and y locations,
but the cursor seems to be off by +1 x position after the first time it
is refreshed.  Does anyone know if I need to initialize some curses 
variable or is this due to something else?

Thanks in advance!

Julie
