In other words, with some work, it is possible to get a professional
looking and acting terminal application using the cygwin Unix
environment but bypassing the cygwin terminal window.
<<

Actually, it looks like the problem is the cygwin fread() function which
apparently converts cursor-movement and control keys to vtxxx escape
sequences Unix-style.  If you use the slang library with the Windows
console option, then you need to write a GetKey() function that translates
from Windows to vtxxx so that programs using libslang.a can find the function
keys and things like pageup and pagedown.
