it's quite a good menu program, simple and effective.

it just displays some options on a terminal, like when you telnet into some timesharing service, offering to let you choose numbers to read mail or use lynx or something.

and i compiled it easily on knoppix.

I have a few line print terminals (terminals the output on paper).

It would not be friendly, as each frame would have a whole page.

But its good for terminals yes, I might have color setting.

Hey X11, when I read your posts I hear funny sounds in my head.

OK, here's a bug:
If you suspend things (C-z), it'll suspend your menu thing, too (it'll run, but in the backround).
