Hi Hossein,


According to:

    http://www.amk.ca/python/howto/curses/


Alan probably meant to say to replace:

######
import msvcrt
######

with:

######
import curses
msvcrt = curses.initscr()
######

as a quick hack to replace 'msvcrt' with something that works on Linux.


It sounded that you wanted to look at other examples of curses
programming?  A long time ago, I wrote a quick-and-dirty demo program that
uses curses here:

Good luck to you!
