So, what do people use to build text based menu systems, and to do other

what now? Any hints?


Ncurses through CFFI. I've got partial bindings that I expand when
necessary. I believe there's some bindings called cl-ncurses floating
around the net, but they were buggy when I tried them. I don't remember
what sort of bug it was.

So there is no native solution? I'll be ready for bugs. Thanks.
