It supports both curses and X-based interfaces. Licensing might be a problem... they don't claim the API just the implementation. A better solution might be to use Shellforms and write a Shellforms compatible parser that use Tk. A really *nifty* solution would be to use WWW forms, since there are already curses and X based interfaces to them. Authentication and security are likely to be problems, though. Plus you'd need to be running one of the HTTPDs.
