The best ways I know of to acquire this facility are to either purchase a UNIX system with windows integrated into it (such as a Sun workstation) or acquire an AT&T (nee Teletype) model 5620 (or follow-on whenever it is finally announced; we've been expecting one for a while) Dot-Mapped Display terminal and associated UNIX support software. There are also some public- domain implementations of windowing systems for "dumb" CRTs, although they're not nearly as spiffy. I imagine others will tell you about those.
