title: curses-like library for cross-platform console app in python
body: <p>I'm looking into developing a console application in python which should be able to run under Windows as well as Linux. For this, I'd really like to use a high-level console library like curses. However, as far as I know, curses is not available on Windows.</p>
  
  <p>What other options do I have? Unfortunately, using cygwin under Windows is not an option...</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for your help!</p>
