[ some stuff about curses hopping between column 1 and the position
of each character written ]
I've seen this, too. There are a couple of ways to fix it:
1. Compile against termcap curses. I think it does not show the
problem, but I'm not entirely sure.
2. Start your output on other than column 1. That sounds like a
silly solution, but the glitch only seems to occur when there
is a character at the far left of the line. In an application
I wrote, I indented all the input lines three spaces and the
problem went away.
Good luck.
