You can also give wxwindows a try.
There is a porting of wxwindows to [n]curses and is called wxcurses.
It seems that this porting is quite old but I would guess that most of

In this way, your program have a program which uses a particular widget running on
X, (motif, Xview or just Xt)
Console
MSWindows
Mac
