Column Skipping

[MTK358]

I am trying to make an ncurses command line text editor, but the problem is
that for some reason the cursor skips a column near the right edge of the
terminal. This for some reason only happens when I refresh the statusbar
WINDOW in the beginning.

[code]
/*
ncurses Column Skipping Test

Arrow keys to move cursor, q to quit

Compile:

gcc editortest.c -lncurses -o editortest
*/

#include <ncurses.h>

void clear_bar(WINDOW* bar) {
        wclear(bar);
        int i;
        for(i=0;i<COLS;i++) waddch(bar, ' ');
        wmove(bar, 0, 0);
}

int main(int argc, char** args)
{
        WINDOW* titlebar;
        WINDOW* statusbar;
        WINDOW* textarea;

        initscr();
        raw();
        refresh();

        titlebar  = newwin(1, COLS, 0, 0);
        statusbar = newwin(1, COLS, LINES-1, 0);
        textarea  = newwin(LINES-2, COLS, 1, 0);

        keypad(textarea, TRUE);

        wattron(titlebar, A_REVERSE);
        wattron(statusbar, A_REVERSE);

        clear_bar(titlebar);
        clear_bar(statusbar);
        wclear(textarea);

        wprintw(titlebar, "Titlebar");
        wprintw(statusbar, "Statusbar");
        wprintw(textarea, "Test");
        wmove(textarea, 0, 0);

        wrefresh(statusbar); //The cursor will NOT skip a column near the right
edge when you comment out this line (???)
        wrefresh(titlebar);
        wrefresh(textarea);

        unsigned long row = 0, col = 0;
        while(1) {
                int c = wgetch(textarea);

                if(c == KEY_UP) row--;
                if(c == KEY_DOWN) row++;
                if(c == KEY_LEFT) col--;
                if(c == KEY_RIGHT) col++;
                if(c == 'q') break;

                wclear(textarea);
                wprintw(textarea, "Test");
                wmove(textarea, row, col);
                wrefresh(textarea);
        }

        endwin();
        return 0;
}
