learnign ncurses, just wrote this, yay :D


So I've started to teach myself ncurses programming. Actually got a program working, a simple maze game. You start in the upper left and the goal/end is the lower right. Thought I'd share it here (curse_maze_2.c) :

Code:
/* gcc -o curses_maze_2 -lncurses curses_maze_2.c */
#include <curses.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <time.h>  /* for random */
#ifndef memmove
  #include <string.h>
#endif
#ifndef srand
  #include <stdlib.h>
#endif
#define neq !=
#define eq ==
#define DOOPS 20
#define OKDOKEY 0
#define mod %
#define maze_width 72
#define maze_height 28
#define drill_north 0
#define drill_south 1
#define drill_west 2
#define drill_east 3


/* global vars */
char *maze;
int player_x, player_y, player_x_maze, player_y_maze;
int where_i_was_x, where_i_was_y, what_was_under_char;
int maze_displace_x, maze_displace_y;
unsigned int end_x_maze, end_y_maze;
unsigned short turns;
int pcc_use_colors;


/* forward references */
void handle_ctrl_c(int);
void build_maze();
void draw_info_line();
void draw_map();
void redraw_board();
void draw_under_character();
void draw_character();


/* start of actual program */
void handle_ctrl_c(s)
int s;
{
  ungetch('q'); /* put in quit command as an input char */
}


void build_maze()
{
  int y, x, turns, a, direction;

  for (y = 0; y neq maze_height; y++) {
    for (x = 0; x neq maze_width; x++) {
      maze[((y * maze_width) + x)] = '#';
    }
  }
  x = 1;
  y = maze_height / 2;
  maze[((y * maze_width) + x)] = ' '; /* start drilling */
  for (turns = 0; turns neq 800000; turns++) {
    y = 1 + (rand() mod (maze_height - 2));
    x = 1 + (rand() mod (maze_width - 2));
    if ('#' eq maze[((y * maze_width) + x)]) { /* if not already dug */

      if (' ' eq maze[((y * maze_width) + (x + 1))])  { a++; direction = drill_east; }
      if (1 eq a) {
        /* we have one adjacent non-diagonal space.
           Maybe we can drill.  the two diaognals opposing this  draw_map(0, 0, old_height, old_width);

        switch (direction) {
