Does anyone know of a good console interaction API that extends the basic 'Console' class in Java6? Something that allows for multiple choice prompts, simple question prompts, etc. Basically a way to build dialog box type interviews in console mode similar to what you would see in an installer.
In fact, if you've used InstallShield Multi-platform at some point you could see that they developed something like this for their console mode installers.
What I need is some generic but decent 3rd party API for the same thing and I really don't feel like re-inventing the wheel.
