UI improvements #5

For the TUI, do you plan on writing an interop handler in another language, or using something like ncurses to capture key presses and alter the state of the window?

(1.) Writing a key capture interop in another language may be the simplest (so that you do not have to go through a massive overhaul), but it is equally as challenging altering the state of the current window without ncurses.

(2.) Overhauling the application's UI portion to use ncurses would require more extensive work, but it's much easier on updating and detecting key presses.

Honestly I'm not even up to considering implementation yet, I just know that I want to make the TUI more user friendly (ie. the current T:x:y,z UX I stole from Corp is not the greatest) but I haven't even come up with ideas yet on how to do that.
