Less Optimized Curses

[Gregory G. Woodbury]

Actually, I THINK that the difference can simply be one of whether or
not the curses package comes with one logical switch enabled or disabled
by default.  There are two logicals [idlok and scrollok] that control
the logical use of insert/delete line and window scrolling.  I can
easily imagine that a simple difference between the default setting of
these options could cause the visual effect that  you are noticing.

Just another curses user.
