Hi Peter,
Last November I posted a message asking for advice on using simple screen handling techniques under Windows. Since then I have been occupied with family / job /Christmas /living and trying to understand curses under linux (it works, seems very complex, sure I'm missing something ...). Only now am I returning to my original query.
One reply (in fact the only reply - thanks Tim Golden) suggested I look at http://flangy.com/dev/python/curses/
There was a similar thread last month. See my reply for more links. I haven't tested them, but they may help.
how to ncurses on win32 platform: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2005-January/262511.html
Just tried that and got the message
"You don't have permission to access /dev/python/curses/files/wcurses-0.1-py2.4.zip on this server."
Yes, I also have problems.
