naive question about turning off cursor

Does anyone know how to turn off the cursor while running a
C program, maybe using curses.h.  I have read about curs_set
in the curses document but I got a ld error saying curs_set
not found during linking.  It seems like curs_set is coming
from <term.h> of system V, but I am using SunOs 4.1 and it has
no <term.h>.  I tried calling leaveok(stdscr,TRUE) but it does 
not turn the cursor off.

Any comment will be very much appreciated.
