response to pacman termcap interpretation
You are probably not using tputs() from termlib
to output the cursor motion string.
For a VT100 this string is preceded by a number "5"
to indicated a timing delay needed.
For terminals which don't need a delay,
the cursor motion string can be output with just printf(),
but it is alway safest to use tputs().
