There are now several libraries that do this.

I tweeted recently about my own one-file GUI toolkit on top of mono-curses, gui.cs, and a bunch of folks replied with their frameworks that are highly productized:

    I see there is Mono Curses so you could have a text based GUI that has colors.  I see it uses a native ncurses library.  Can it handle mouse events as well?
    
    System.Console in .net core has colors but does not have mouse event handling. 
    
     I think ncurses does but requires the terminal to support it.
    
    What is needed to have a TUI that uses ncurses and is cross platform that can run on .net core and mono?  Platforms including Linux, Mac, and Windows.
    
    Thanks,
    Daniel
