Re: curses... maybe that becomes a DOCS issue, to mention the available packages. But it would be easier, no doubt to port curses to a known existing escape sequence control set, than to use a bunch arcane, foreign-to-the-Unix-porter-that-wants-curses obscure and seldom discussed Windows APIs.

IIRC, ANSI is somewhat incompatible with sending random binary gibberish to the screen, as people accidentally do with TYPE sometimes :) But the random binary gibberish may contain ANSI control sequences... That's why I'm negative on making it a default.
