I've written pretty gross code to handle a similar situation. It's currently
embedded within 
https://github.com/dankamongmen/growlight/blob/master/src/ncurses.c,
but I'm someday soon going to extract some of these routines and expose them
as an ncurses extension library. Feel free to rip anything here off you'd
like.
