yes - usually that was the prompt for the terminal to insert a new line ... on 
some terminals this is a behaviour you can't control as it's implemented in 
hardware, so curses fakes things by moving the cursor back to where it "should" 
be afterward.

If you try and to something when the cursor is at the extreme bottom right of 
the window/region and the terminal is hard-coded to do $magic immediately 
after, then your screen will be all messed up.
