Seems safe enough. Full sources of your module could help 
to fix the problem.

#curses.bind KEY_UP north
#curses.bind KEY_LEFT west

etc.

It is not always convenient, as cursor navigation arrows 
will be bound to that "north", "west" too. If you running 
Lyntin in xterm (as I do), then there is more compilcated 
but more convenient way.

Put in your .Xdefaults these resources lines:

Lyntin*VT100.Translations: #override \n\
~Shift ~Ctrl        <Key>KP_8: string("north\n") \n\
~Shift ~Ctrl        <Key>KP_2: string("south\n") \n\
~Shift ~Ctrl        <Key>KP_4: string("west\n") \n\
~Shift ~Ctrl        <Key>KP_6: string("east\n") \n\
~Shift ~Ctrl        <Key>KP_9: string("up\n") \n\
~Shift ~Ctrl        <Key>KP_3: string("down\n") \n

etc. You could override any X keycodes as well.

Refresh the X Resources database:

xrdb <.Xdefaults

Then run Lyntin as below:

xterm -class Lyntin -e lyntin --ui curses (...any command 
line params here)

This method even works under textui.


If you run Lyntin in textmode only under Linux, then there 
is one more way to go - edit keymap file for linux 
console, but I don't like this idea myself. I'd rather run 
X Window and xterm.
