curses.h

hi all

i get a segmentation fault error in the following program. couldn't understand why it happens. can anyone explain what is really happening.


s1.c
#include<curses.h>
main(){
int c;
noecho();
cbreak();
c=getch();
printf("%c",(char)c);
}

I compiled this program as
cc s1.c -lcurses. compilation is successful. But during run time it gives core dump error.
