The ncurses functions are such a mess (and some of it I suspect is in
ncurses itself) that I am thinking the easiest way to write a terminal
interface is simply to write ANSI directly to the terminal.
Although the manual on the CLI refers me to readline, readline doesn't
seem provide a way to get a single key press, and so far as I can tell
doesn't provide a reference to how to get a single keypress. I reckon
some widgets would be more spiffy with keypresses instead of whole lines.
How can I get keypresses?
