What particular part of ncurses are you looking for?  Do you need mouse
input, do you want simply colour and positioning, are you looking for
windowing, etc.?


I you're only looking for positioning and colour, do
Console.SetCursorPosition(), Console.BackgroundColor,
Console.ForegroundColor not do what you want (besides the background
bitmap, which I don't think is possible in a .NET console)?

Yes, you don't get handy functions like mvaddch, but they'd be simple to
implement:

public static void mvaddch(int x, int y, char c)
{
  Console.SetCursorPosition(x,y);
  Console.Write(c);
}

Given the complete lack of object-orientation in the curses API (like
member overloading), I think writing an ncurses API in .NET would be
anachronistic and writing similar functionality to make full use of OO
would be a better endeavour (which may be why it hasn't been done).
