Console Engine

Program framework for a Curses-style interface, including:

• OpenGL-based character grid rendering from a 256 character spritesheet with 16 foreground and background colour options.
• program loop with FPS-control and separate threads for logic/drawing and window events/input.
• keyboard and mouse input handling.
• UI element API. (TODO)
