Thanks to those who replied, & especially to the one person who read my
question properly and took the trouble to answer the question I
actually asked. (Thanks, Guy.)  Can I now reformulate the question:

I am faced with having to implement a CUA-conformant (PM-like) user
interface on a character terminal, mainly to get the action bar & its
pulldowns, the function key area, and the field cursor. Multiple
windows (simultaneously active &/or user-switchable) and mouse support
are actually not part of the task.  It seemed to me that this could be
done using bits of X-windows, or alternatively that someone somewhere
must have done a CUA or PM subset for a character terminal. Any
information? Alternatively, is this held to be infeasible?
