Thanks for the reply. I will take a look at the C API for ncurses,

because Python's curses module doesn't have a scrollable text view
(though it has a curses.textpad which allows multiline text input in the
visible window only).

The closest thing the C API has to that is the PAD class, but it's not a plug-in solution to the problem of creating an editor (all editor functionality must be added to it). You might want to look at:

or:

(two similar projects, same names)
