It's a bad idea to use a kbhit of any sort in unix. kbhit implies you're
using a loop to check for key strokes, which consumes a lot of CPU time.

I often curse at problems *wa wa wa* Anyway, bad idea to mix printf with
curses, curses for one thing maintains an internal counter of which row and
column output is to be sent to, when you use printf, you print and update the
screen without updating the pointers, also anything you printf won't be saved
in curses' screen so if you do a screen refresh all your printfs will be gone
but your printws will still be there
