The most portable solution is probably "curses". It manages cursor
movement, keyboard input, box drawing, colors and windows (among other
things) for a wide variety of terminal types. It originated on Unix, but
it's also available for DOS in the form of the PD Curses package, which
should be downloadable at the same sites as DJGPP. Some versions (like
"ncurses") include higher-level panel and menu libraries to simplify
things; I'm not sure about PD Curses.
