Twin

http://linuz.sns.it/~max/twin/
Twin is a text-mode window environment. It turns a text terminal into a X11-style display with window manager, terminal windows, and can also serve as display for remote applications. Each terminal window provides the functions of a text-mode GNU/Linux console. Twin runs on the GNU/Linux console, X11, libggi, and itself. It supports multiple simultaneous displays, and can attach/detach each display on the fly.
