Is there a console-like API for Windows Store?

I have a design that would greatly benefit from a console. By console, I mean

  1. User inputs text
  2. I take the input
  3. I return the output on the next line
  4. User enters more text on the line after and repeat

Now, I'm NOT looking for ways to access the Win32 console APIs, but rather a Console library or some such for Windows Store implemented in XAML or some such.

I remember very clearly seeing a project that did all this, but I can't find it now. So, is there a library or some such out there like this, preferably open source?

It exists and is the Console class for Modern UI Apps. It is a pay product

http://www.moderncomponents.com/products/ConsoleClass/index.php

It uses similar syntax to write out console data, ie


Console.WriteLine("yourdata");
