This email is related to some discussion on the #urwid IRC channel.  I
believe that after Aldo switched from curses_display to raw_display the
problem went away.

It's likely that OSX has some broken termcap entries (or Terminal.app is
just broken)  While it might be possible to "fix" curses_display for OSX
I'm not sure if that's the best approach.  Once Apple fixes Terminal.app
our hack might prevent their fix from working.
