I need a character-based, X-like environment.

Specifically, I need something that approximates
Xt and widgets, for character-based terminals.
Preferably portable, using curses, or at least
terminfo/termcap. No graphics, just text.

It doesn't necessarily have to support a client/server
modle, but could be a simple library. It should include
at least basic widgets (label, command, etc) and be easily
extensible.

Yes, I realize it would be very limited compared to X.
So what?

Is there anything like this out there?
