O'Reilly & Associates (981 Chestnut Street, Newton, MA 02164) has
two very well-written books:
	"Programming with Curses" by John Strang
	"Termcap and Terminfo" by John Strang, Tim O'Reilly and Linda Mui

You should rush right out and get a copy of both.  Put your name all
over them right away, because every programmer in the vicinity will
try to steal them.  They are about two orders of magnitude better 
than anything else I've seen on the subject.  Of course, if someone
knows of anything as good or better, I'd like to hear about it.
