I compiled and executed on RS6000/530 running AIX 3.1
/unix is dated May 29 1990 - 1261933.
Using both xterm and vt100, the program appears okay.

or some other terminal that cannot do hardware scrolling.  If the terminal
has no capability 'csr', curses has changed recently.  I don't know what
flavor of curses AIX thinks it is, since the system seems confused as to
which AT&T it is running.
