I'd like to add a 1-2 line no-scroll-area at the top of the screen,
so as to
print a message which indicates the progress of the current test.
....I'm not sure if the curses module has this non-scroll area
capability.
Yes, curses works by defining viewport windows on the character
screen. Thus you can define two windows, one for the scrolling text
(and add a scrollbar to bring it back if needed) and one for the fixed
display.
There are some wrappers around curses to make the learning
curve a little bit less steep. Although, personally I don't think
raw curses is all that hard... :-)
