The curses library is missing two important calls:

newterm() -- required to work with multiple terminals, or to find out if it is possible to work with this terminal

delscreen() -- required to free up the memory after endwin() -- current implementations have memory leaks for programs that need to start and stop (those that handle terminal resizes, for instance)
