Mordac is being ridiculous. It's a direct link to some code.

Code:
void startup(void)
{

   printf("\033(U");  /* set to ibm character set */
   initscr();         /* initialize ncurses */
   start_color();
   COLOR_PAIRS = 72; /* needed to fix the 64 color pair bug */
   cbreak(); //
   raw();
   noecho();         /* don't echo input */
   nonl();
   use_sbar = (LINES > 24) ? 1 : 0;  /* only use statbar on big terms */
   win = newwin(screenlen, COLS, 0, 0);  /* configurable later? */
   wrefresh(win);

   if (win == NULL)
   {
       printf("\nError creating main window!\n");
       exit(2);
   }
   scrollok(win, TRUE);
   nodelay(win, TRUE);
   keypad(win, TRUE);

   if (use_sbar)
   {
       statusbar = newwin(1, COLS, screenlen, 0);
       if (statusbar == NULL)
       {
           delwin(win);
           endwin();
           printf("\nError creating status bar window!\n");
           exit(3);
       }
   }
   dos_lf = 1;      /* emulate dos linefeeds for bbs compatibility */
   stage = 0;
   binary_mode = 0;

   /* option defaults */
   did_SGA = 0;
   did_TERM = 0;
   did_BIN = 0;
   ansi = 1;
   rz_active = 0;
}

void draw_statusbar(void)
{
   int i;
   char sbar[79];
//  wattrset(statusbar, crt2curses(0x1F));
   wattrset(statusbar, crt2curses(0x19));
//  wcolor_set(statusbar, crt2curses(0x1F), NULL);
   wcolor_set(statusbar, crt2curses(0x19), NULL);
   sprintf(sbar, " %s %s", appname, version);
   for (i = strlen(sbar); i < 80; i++) sbar[i] = 32;
   mvwaddstr(statusbar, 0,0, sbar);
   touchwin(statusbar);
   wrefresh(statusbar);
   touchwin(win);
   textattr(0x07);
   wrefresh(win);
}

But that's one reason it's best to post here instead of linking.

Name
       curses - screen functions with optimal cursor motion

Syntax
       cc [ flags ] files -lcurses -ltermcap [ libraries ]

Description
       These  routines give the user a method of updating screens with reasonable optimization.  They keep an image of the current screen, and the
       user sets up an image of a new one.  Then the subroutine tells the routines to make the current screen look like the new one.  To  initial-
       ize  the  routines,  the  routine must be called before any of the other routines that deal with windows and screens are used.  The routine
       should be called before exiting.
