That's a good idea, but I'd have to wrap the c library myself, wouldn't 
I?  Also, what happens when a user has an incorrect TERM setting (I've 
run into this before)

I don't want to reimpliment all the nice speed optimizations that the 
curses library has, I just want something simple that should work for as 
many people as possible.
