I need a simple (or complex...) menuing system.

Currently our /etc/passwd file looks like this:

user:PW:1:1:Description:/usr/user:/bin/sh

Where the .profile in /usr/user has a menu of program choices.

I want to have something like this:

user:PW:1:1:Description:/usr/user:/usr/local/bin/menu

Execution would be passed to the menu program which would read a
data file of menu options. The menu program would then launch
programs based on the selection.

If you have such a program please EMail it to me.

I cannot FTP.

Thanks,

car.
