Are there similar solutions for other languages (other than curses)? In particular I would love something for python scripting.

There's a Clojure wrapper (https://github.com/sjl/clojure-lanterna) which features in a pretty great series of blog posts on making a Roguelike with it: http://stevelosh.com/blog/2012/07/caves-of-clojure-01/

terminfo and curses fulfil the first two layers described on the web-page, and have decent bindings in the Python standard library. For the third layer, the widget toolkit, you probably want something like Urwid.
