Gerrit,
If you're doing this on Unix, take a look at the ncurses library;
there's a Python interface to that. (I think Oliver Andrich did it;
searching DejaNews should find it fairly quickly since this keeps
coming up.)
The standard curses module will be documented in the next release of
the Library Reference.
