Subject:	undefined references compiling gcc with ncurses

Greetings,
I am a curses newbie and having trouble running a simple curses
program. I haven't run into a discussion thus far on the specific
problem I'm having and I imagine there is a simple solution. My
program is named ctest.c and is as follows:


#include<stdio.h>
#include<curses.h>

int main()
{
  initsscr();
  cbreak();
  noecho();
  char x = getch();
  while(x != 'q')
  {
    printf("Entered: %c\n",x);
    x = getch();
  }
  endwin();
}

And I compile using

gcc -lncurses ctest.c

When linking I get an undefined reference for each curses function.
I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.

Thank you,

JS
