I currently tring to make a simple program that has two windows. I can't seem to find anyway to change the location of the phycical cursor to a different new window.

How is it done?

with ncurses, right ? so what you call "windows" are actually character-painted-box-on-a-terminal, right ?

maybe i'm wrong, but i'm not sure you can capture anything else than mouse clicks using ncurses, e.g. unlike a graphical program, there's no definition of "hover" or whatever ... so you can't "detect" that the cursor is now over another box until the user clicked that other box.

'm taking abut the little blinking _ cursor. But anyway this was a couple of weeks ago, so I have worked out another way of displaying what I want.
