Your program looked OK to me, except that refrsh() should be
refresh() - I assume that's just a typo. I suspect that your
termcap (or terminfo) doesn't include definitions for standout
and standend. For termcap, you need to add the fields so=... and
se=... (check the terminal manual for the exact sequences).
