    I am not sure if you have seen the dialog tool for linux. I thought someday it would make an easy drop in replacement for the current menu system... What do you think?

    Some info:
    dialog man page
    dialog tutorial

    The code below produces this menu (which you can basically continue parse with the current bash code):
    [​IMG]


    Code:
    dialog --title "Centmin Mod 1.2.3-eva2000.08 - http://centminmod.com" \
    --menu "Centmin Mod Menu:" 23 60 24 \
    1 "Centmin Install" \
    2 "Add Nginx vhost domain" \
    3 "NSD setup domain name DNS" \
    4 "Nginx Upgrade / Downgrade" \
    5 "PHP Upgrade / Downgrade" \
    6 "XCache Re-install" \
    7 "APC Cache Re-install" \
    8 "XCache Install" \
    9 "APC Cache Install" \
    10 "Memcached Server Re-install" \
    11 "MariaDB 5.2/5.5 & 10.x Upgrade Sub-Menu" \
    12 "Zend OpCache Install/Re-install" \
    13 "Install ioping.sh vbtechsupport.com/1239/" \
    14 "SELinux disable" \
    15 "Install/Reinstall ImagicK PHP Extension" \
    16 "Change SSHD Port Number" \
    17 "Multi-thread compression: pigz,pbzip2,lbzip2..." \
    18 "Suhosin PHP Extension install" \
    19 "Install FFMPEG and FFMPEG PHP Extension" \
    20 "NSD Re-install" \
    21 "Update - Nginx + PHP-FPM + Siege" \
    22 "Add Wordpress Nginx vhost + WP Super Cache" \
    23 "Update Centmin Mod Code Base" \

    Wondering if you put any more thought into this. Sorry to bring back an old thread, but I really think this would be a nice upgrade!

    Unfortunately, haven't really thought about this anymore. Probably right now will be something for after 123.09beta01 goes stable and for the next development version to look at.
