You can do this sort of "fancy text terminal" in Ruby using libraries
such as "curses" or "ncurses", which are written in C and possess Ruby
bindings. There's a more elaborate library written in Ruby called
Highline, IIRC, which seems to handle most of the fiddly detail for
you. I also want to try this out some day, but I haven't got around to
it yet :).
