ncurses: xcurses: revamping curses

Hi,

I have a very large application that uses ncurses.
As you know, business rules, screen/keyboard I/O are all interspersed
(mixed) in the source code.

Do you know of a curses wrapper that would allow us to revamp a curses
app in such a way that it would be converted into a GUI without loosing
my work (3.5 millions lines of code!) in terms of business rules?

What if I used QT or GTK to mimic curses functions? Have you thought
about it?

What I am looking for a small step beyond the traditional curses
functionality and look-and feel, a step towards a GUI.

I have a dream of just linking my program with anotther curses lib (a
'xcurses' if this existed) and it would pop-up as some kind of a GUI.

Many thanks in advance for any tips and thoughts in this direction.

Helvécio
