Configuration-driven, Text Based Configuration Wizard for Linux

Is there a curses based system for building a configuration-file driven setup wizard? I'd like something that a开发者_运维知识库llows me to simply input a configuration file (debconf-style or XML-based) and output a populated configuration file.

I've done some searching, but most of what I find are tools for specific purposes (linux kernel menuconfig, etc). Is there a generic tool for doing this?

Two possible solutions:

• Dialog - Script driven curses widgets
• CDK - Curses Development Kit
• Newt/Whiptail - Programming lib and util for text based windows and components
