"""curses.wrapper
Contains one function, wrapper(), which runs another function which
should be the rest of your curses-based application. If the
application raises an exception, wrapper() will restore the terminal
to a sane state so you can read the resulting traceback.

restoring normal keyboard/screen behavior on error.
The callable object 'func' is then passed the main window 'stdscr'
as its first argument, followed by any other arguments passed to
wrapper().
