Why does Curses sometimes print out the erase character instead of
erasing the previous character like it supposed to? I checked it
out with the erasechar() function and it does, in fact, know what
the erase character is. The backspace on my keyboard is set
to '^?' and it works just fine in the shell. the application i'm
writing has a command line interface and will be tedious to use if
the user cannot use the backspace.
thanks,
pat
