Dear Unix Wizards,
I have the following simple program which use Curses package to read
a file name. The problem is when you want to use backspace to correct the
input the will be echoed on the screen. I tried setting different
terminal mode without success. Does anyone know how to solve it?
Please E-mail me.
Thanks in advance!!

initscr();
nocbreak();
move(curline, curcol);
addstr("Enter the file name - ");
refresh();
getstr(str);
printw("\nThe file name is %s\n", str);
refresh();
endwin();
