What about CURSES?


As far as I know, curses is a text-only library. I'd love to see counter examples, of course.

Yes, it is based upon ASCII.  But it does do windows and has widgets and
a cursor.
If you need pixel resolution rather than glyph resolution, then specify
so in the statement of your problem and justify it (to yourself, not
necessarily to us - but it would be nice to satisfy our curiosity).
It's the usual and ultimate reason. "Client demands it".

As for the original request, I did specifically say "graphical environment", adding that I need some basic widgets. Curses may provide the later (I actually don't remember seeing any mouse related applications using it, though have seen some integration with gpm), but does not provide the former.
