No, no, no!  I guess the warning doesn't come from the compiler (it
doesn't care if you declare the prototype twice, unless the prototypes are
different--and in this case they aren't).  The warning probably comes from
the linker, and you should never ignore those.  (Would the original poster
please post the exact warning message, if any, that gcc prints?)

The *real* problem here is that you should never use conio and curses to 
gether, as they will most likely conflict with each other.  PDCurses have 
everything you should need, so just don't use conio functions.
