I am new to C++, so there is probably some obvious reason why what I
am doing is wrong but I don't know what it is.  I am trying to use
C++ for a simple application that needs to move the cursor around the
way vi and many games do.  I don't know how to initialize the window 
correctly (I think).  The little bit of test code below demonstrates what 
I thought was a correct way to initialize the window and perform a
simple 'clear screen' operation.

#include <CursesWindow.h>
main()
{
	CursesWindow w(stdscr);

	w.clear();
	w.refresh();
}

Does anyone out there have a bit of C++ code that uses CursesWindows.h
that they can send me, so that I can learn from their example?

Thanks,
