I once had the same problem when porting TestDisk and
PhotoRec ( http://www.fbakan.de/photorec-os2.htm ).
Solution was to use a special build of ncurses.lib and
a helper lib (os2term.a) and a patched version of
terminfo/a/ansi that Froloff (http://froloff.homeip.net/)
created for me to solve the problem.
I don't know if (and don't think) he made these patched versions
available for the public. I think you should first
try to contact him. In case you don't get an answer from
him send me a mail to the adress available on my website.
I think he wouldn't mind when I forward this stuff to you.

Good luck
Franz

Hi all,

Yes this is the solution.
After i mailed Froloff he send me the files, and indeed the colors,
and the keys are working now fine.

Thankz again Franz for pointing me into the right direction :)

In ncurses' sources, the misc/emx.src file contains terminfo
entries which are useful on OS/2 (including "ansi", which
happens to be incompatible with everyone else's "ansi").
Use that.
