I'll try to figure it out, but maybe after the code freeze.  I started
my programming career writing curses software a million years ago on a
couple of extinct Unixes... I might even be able to remember how it
works.  This is not a problem for committing the PSQL_WATCH_PAGER
patch, I just mentioned it here because I thought that others might
try it out on a Mac and be confused.

Thank you.

probably there will not be an issue inside ncurses - the most complex part of get_event is polling of input sources - tty and some other. The pspg should not to stop there on tty reading.

Pavel
