curses non-curses

I want to call ls or other unix commands in my curses programme, but when I call them through system() in a curses programme, they are misaligned; what do I do? I tried to call them after endwin, and that works, but I'd like to do that without going back to the actual terminal.

That reply should really be reserved for threads that are so dumb they don't merit a real one, not for situations where you're too inept to think of something worth contributing. Otherwise you might as well say something about your anus.
