I think that’s what we used to call a program. Things like vi and wordstar seem like they’d qualify.

Yes I agree, something like vi or GNU nano is a great example of a TUI. The meaning is drifting a bit but I think the distinction is useful: a CLI program is one that you can invoke from a Makefile.
