Total n00b to working with curses, and I'm a bit confused. I was able to follow demos up until I got to using windows, which seem to only work when they are inside of any kind of loop. However, in the below example each window has a little flickering cursor that leads me to think that I am doing something drastically wrong and refreshing like crazy when I really don't need to be.
import curses
from curses import wrapper
def main (stdscr):
stdscr.clear()
anastasia_win = curses.newwin(3, 20, 8, 0)
mark_win = curses.newwin(3, 20, 16, 0)
while True:
anastasia_win.clear()
anastasia_win.addstr(0,0,"1. Anastasia")
anastasia_win.addstr(1,0,"Sensor status:")
anastasia_win.addstr(2,0,"Position:")
anastasia_win.refresh()
mark_win.clear()
mark_win.addstr(0,0,"2. Mark")
mark_win.addstr(1,0,"Sensor status:")
mark_win.addstr(2,0,"Position:")
mark_win.refresh()
stdscr.getch()
wrapper(main)
What do I need to change if (for now) I just want to draw that text and leave it on screen with no refreshing necesary? If I don't have the while loop, nothing gets drawn at all.
