None that I know of, but then again the Windows console was horrible.
With the advent of the new Windows Terminal, Windows 10 now has a
first-class terminal system with all the capabilities of any Unix
terminal. So who knows, maybe curses might actually find a use on
Windows! MS seems to be giving the idea of terminal applications a bit
of love.
