The following program illustrates a strange bug that exists in the SCO
Xenix version of curses. If the source is placed into bug.c, and
compiled with: cc -Ml2 -DM_TERMINFO bug.c -ltinfo -lx,
then getch() returns 0 when the letter 'd' is entered. Any other letter
is recognized (and returned) fine. If the keypad() statement is removed,
the problem disappears. Any ideas?

#include <curses.h>

main()
{
	int c ;
	initscr() ;
	keypad(stdscr, TRUE) ;
	c = getch() ;
	endwin() ;
	printf("c = %c\n", c) ;
}
