I have a similar problem at work.  I am trying to use a curses program
to accept a one character response and send it to a Fortran program.

My problem is this: the curses routine (endwin, I think) I found in the
manuals clears the screen after exiting the C routine.. thereby erasing
all of the stuff printed on the screen.  It doesn't even wait for the
character to be typed.. 


I think the other routines are initscr and getchar, but I'm not positive,
I'm not at work with the code in front of me.

Any help from you curses gurus will be greatly appreciated...
