Get a precompiled termcap and termutils or ncurses and a terminfo library 
or get one of the above and build them yourself, as they come in handy if
you do more screen oriented stuff like pine or vi. I personally have
ncurses and terminfo on my web page (which I personally prefer, but its
all a matter of chocie) at http://www.wenet.net/~garbanzo/gnuwin32
