[net.unix] Question about curses

ss@hocda.UUCP (S.SHTEINGART) (02/16/84)

I am having a problem using UNIX V Release 2 "curses" commands.
I wrote a menu driven program which prompts the user for various
information and then reads this information using "[w]scanw()"
command.  The problem is that the terminal doesn't echo the
characters as they are being typed in.  If I use "echo()" before
"[w]scanw()", the entire message is echoed after the user hits
RETURN.  But I want the characters to be echoed as they are entered.
Is there any way I can do it?
