Status line for text mode console

Some question, inspired by my mainframe time...
Is there a port that allows FreeBSD to be equipped with some kind
of status line when using the shell on a text mode console? With
"status line" I mean some automagically updating text line that
informs about... date, time, terminal, actual system load, number
of users logged in or another status, for example like this:
poly at pups:~/src/bla% _
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
poly at pups.host.com:ttyv2 (3) .:I <= => 2008-11-30 07:02:15
For example, the status line sits in line 25, line 24 contains
a barrier, and the shell runs on lines 1 - 23.
Is there anything comparable? Or do I have to write my own? :-)
