I have not looked at the Vibra sources myself, but I will always remember seeing the same kinda thing in an early FISH disk, either #14 or #16 in a program called PDTerm. Take a look at the menu tools in there. For most applications, they are QUITE sufficient. What impressed me MOST about the way the author himself used the menuing functions within his own source code was that you could actually SEE the structure of the menu by the indenting style that he chose to use. Look at it... I can't do it justice here just from memory. Rob Peck
