Termcap driven windows environment

I am looking for a windowing system based on TERMCAP or TERMINFO that will
drive multiple windows on NON-GRAPHICS (ansi) terminals.  

I had one when I was working at North Carolina State University, but have 
since then forgotten the name of it, and where I got it!!

Any help would be MUCH appreciated!

Thanks,

Try the "curses" package.  It sounds exactly like what you're looking
for.  I don't know where you can get it from, but a local UNIX wiz there
might be,
