Hi,
I recently purchased "Unix System V/386 Programmer's Guide", and in the chapter
on curses, I came upon the program below.  I am using SCO Xenix version 2.3,
release 1.  The program is as follows:

/* Example, page 10-33, "Unix System V/386 Programmer's Guide" */

#include <curses.h>

main()
{
	int ch;

	initscr();
	cbreak();
	addstr("Press any character:  ");
	refresh();
	ch = getch();
	printw("\n\n\nThe character entered was a '%c'.\n",ch);
	refresh();
	endwin();
}

Now, when compiled with the following
	cc cursestst.c -lcurses
I get the following message:

LINK:  unresolved externals:

_nap in file(s):
	/lib/386/Slibcurses.a(gettch.c)

Now, I thought maybe it was due to Unix/Xenix cross-programming, so, I checked
my man page on the curses getch(), and it mached with what the book said (on 
page 10-32), so, I am not sure what is causing this problem.  I am trying to
write windows-type software for a local company.

Any help would be appriciated.  Thanks in advance.

Dave
