Calm down. This is no big deal.

First, from the shell:
echo $TERM

If you see "unknown" or nothing or a value that does not match your terminal then that is your problem.

To fix then
TERM=ansi
export TERM

or
TERM=vt100
export TERM

or TERM=70096
export TERM

whatever is appropriate for your terminal. If you are using a terminal emulator, you need to determine what terminal the emulator is set to emulate and set TERM accordingly.

To move around in sam:

- use the "Tab" key to move between screen elements
- use the arrow keys to move within screen elements
- use "Ctrl-F" for context-sensitive help anywhere in sam
