I'm searching for libraries or frameworks to help me build a command-line interface (CLI) application that includes a text-based user interface (TUI). I'm mainly interested in features like interactive menus, well-structured table displays, and efficient navigation options. Which libraries would you recommend for tackling this?

Have you checked out Lanterna? It's a solid option for building TUIs, and it supports the kind of interactive menus you're looking for. Really user-friendly!
