Hey,

Before requesting something, I suggest you do a quick search to see if
such things already exist. Just a couple alternatives:
http://tasktools.org/projects/libvitapi.html
https://code.google.com/p/termbox/

Personally I think TUI is useless in this day and age. Even the most
unsupported operating systems at least have VGA/VESA support by devs
because it is relatively easy to put in for graphics.

I think line editors are proper for terminals (any type of terminal:
real, virtual, pseudo). Any full screen editor should be a graphical
editor. I think some can guess where I'm coming from...
