curses is a screen library that support a ton of terminals (anything in
/etc/termcap, which you can add more terminals too, or at least root
can).  It is mostly used on unix systems for programs like ezmail, vi,
emacs, etc.  There are also implementations for PC's, and I am sure that
there are some mac implementations also.

rtfm curses for more help.
