    Moving output on screen?

    Hi all,

    Using C++, how do I move the standard output of a program around the console? Instead of having everything either tag onto the last line or moving to a newline using '\n', how can I make it so it can start text output at any point on the screen? Thanks!

    You must use the ncurse library.

    Thanks!

    Is there any good tutorial anyone could point me to for ncurses? Searching Google (and the Linux search on google) are not turning up any good ones.
