IME most programmers who look for "console I/O" are using
Windows (some kind thereof anyway).  The effbot has a package
called console over at effbot.org (URL not handy) and my
WConio is at http://newcenturycomputers.net/projects/wconio.html.

Note that there is a bug in the cgets() handling of non-ascii
keys in the current version; nobody has reported it though...
