Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Sub menu's Post 13190 by Jimbo on Sunday 13th of January 2002 07:00:26 PM

Here's a little example. The sub-menus are coded as procedures which are referenced by the main-menu code.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
file_menu() {
clear
echo '\n\n(File Functions menu processing goes here)'
sleep 2
}

dir_menu() {
clear
echo '\n\n(Directory Functions menu processing goes here)'
sleep 2
}

# Main Menu

while true
do
clear
cat<<endcat


1. File Functions
2. Directory Functions
9. Exit

endcat

echo 'Enter choice: \c'
read reply

case $reply in
  1) file_menu;;
  2) dir_menu;;
  9) return;;
  *) echo 'invalid choice'
     sleep 2;;
esac

done

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       tk_menuBar, tk_bindForTraversal - Obsolete support for menu bars

SYNOPSIS

       tk_menuBar frame ?menu menu ...?

       tk_bindForTraversal arg arg ...
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       These  procedures  were used in Tk 3.6 and earlier releases to help manage pulldown menus and to implement keyboard traversal of menus.	In
       Tk 4.0 and later releases they are no longer needed.  Stubs for these procedures have been retained for backward  compatibility,  but  they
       have no effect.	You should remove calls to these procedures from your code, since eventually the procedures will go away.

       From Tk 8.0 onwards, you should instead construct your menubar as a normal menu and then attach it to the toplevel of your choice using the
       -menu option of that widget.

SEE ALSO

       menu(1T), toplevel(1T)

KEYWORDS

       keyboard traversal, menu, menu bar, post
