I need to develop a curses-based menu interface to postgres (running on
a pentium with FreeBSD 2.2-GAMMA). I already have the web based interface
to postgres via PHP/FI and JAVA. What I need is an interface to run on
ordinary dumb terminals and telnet sessions. The interface will use
curses routines; my hope is that I don't have to develop curses-based
routine to do pull-down, pop-up menus, cascade menus, text fields for
input etc. Someone must have written such a package.

Thanks
