I have a similar problem on OS/2. When running any script
that uses curses I get:
[U:\dev\Python-2.4.3\PC\os2emx]python test_curses.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "test_curses.py", line 242, in ?
 curses.wrapper(main)
 File "U:/DEV/PYTHON-2.4.3/Lib/curses/wrapper.py", line 49,
in wrapper
 curses.nocbreak()
_curses.error: nocbreak() returned ERR
If I remove the reference to nocbreak() from wrapper.py, I
get the same error but in endwin(), removing endwin() from
wrapper.py, I get an error in cbreak(), removing cbreak()
then some scripts work.
For example, from the demo folder, all work exceptlife.py &
xmas.py, which both return an error "_curses.error:
nocbreak() returned ERR" on various line numbers.
Seems certain curses functions are working correctly, others
aren't.
The patch in this bug does NOT make any difference here.
