You may be interested in libgnt, an event-based ncurses toolkit. It has
built-in widgets like buttons, boxes, textboxes, comboboxes, menus etc.
You can take a look at the Finch instant messenger (http://pidgin.im),
which uses libgnt. There's also a python binding for it at
http://code.google.com/p/python-gnt/ (git repo at
http://repo.or.cz/w/python-gnt.git). There are some example applications
in the 'example/' subdirectory.

There's also a bunch of screenshots at http://pidgin.im/~sadrul/ss/
(libgnt creates the html dumps)

The library makes heavy use of glib/gobjects, though, which might be too
high a requirement for your project.

Cheers,
