The key question: does it make sense to use NCURSES instead of the WIN32 console APIs?

This task is meant to explore the advantages and disadvantages.

One possible advantage is that (presumably) with the same API in use, we can have common code instead of 2 different native ChUI implementations. On the other hand, any 4GL implementation differences may still require Windows-specific code.
