By "only python libs" do you mean only the stuff that's
included in the vanilla CPython distro?  If that's the case,
then curses is pretty much the only choice.  Last time I
looked, it didn't work on Windows.

I've used the snack module (which is what anaconda uses), and
it's very handy for simple text-based UIs.
