Terminal app which takes up the whole terminal

I have been trying to figure out how to make an app similar to emacs in that when you run it, it runs in the terminal but it takes up the whole terminal and acts almost like a window. I can't find anything online about this, can anyone give me pointers of where to get started to figure this out?

For *nix, there is ncurses.

Wikipedia explains it to you: It is a library to write "GUI-like" applications in text format.

Also: Ncurses for Windows
