Console UI library for Python


Anyone know of a good library for building text-mode user-interfaces in
Python, like if I wanted to make an email program like Pine or Mutt?

A quick Google reveals Urwid:

which looks pretty good.

Urwid is probably a more sophisticated solution, but
for very simple applications, you may also consider
