curses deletln() method gives AttributeError

[Ron Johnson, Jr.]

Hello,

The statement main.win.deletln() fails with this traceback:
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "./curstst", line 169, in ?
    fm.mainloop()                    # Enter the main loop
  File "./curstst", line 140, in mainloop
    self.main_funcs[c](main, stat)
  File "./curstst", line 109, in curs_dn
    main.win.deletln()
AttributeError: deletln  

Here's my version info:
Python 1.5.2 (#1, Dec  8 1999, 21:20:51)  
[GCC 2.95.2 19991024 (release)] on linux-i386

My situation is is that I have an an object name "main".  An
attribute of main is a subwindow "win", and main.win is full 
of text.  When I arrow down to the last line, I main.win.move(0,0)
then call main.win.deletln().  Calling main.win.clrtoeol()
works, but it's not what I want...

Any hints? 

TIA,
Ron
