There are several (as is the Perl way).

Cdk                           Collection of Curses widgets 
Cmenu 	                   Curses-based menu and data entry functions
Curses 	                     Character screen handling and windowing 
Curses::Application 	Application UI framework for Curses 
Curses::Forms 	        Form management for Curses::Widgets 
Curses::UI::POE 	 A subclass that forces Curses::UI to use POE
Curses::Widgets 	Assorted widgets for rapid interface design
Dialog                        interface library to libdialog
PV  	  	              Text-mode user interface widgets
PerlMenu 		  Curses-based menu and template system

There are, undoubtedly, more.
