I tried looking for an ncurses library once, the only thing I found was a
JNI implementation which I didn't find useful.  It should be possible to
do a pure Java implementation over telnet, at least, but maybe not
directly to the console.

Again another good project to pick up =)  Might be a straightforward port,
and I would love to see it done too.
