Menu at the bottom
Hi everyone,
I'm new to Linux and bash scripting.
Question? How can I display a menu at the bottom of the screen when displaying a content of a file with the less command?
Like in gvim with bash support, when debugging or testing your script this text "Press enter or type command to continue" is displayed at the bottom of the window.
Thanks in advance

NAME
tk_popup - Post a popup menu
SYNOPSIS
tk_popup menu x y ?entry?
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This procedure posts a menu at a given position on the screen and configures Tk so that the menu and its cascaded children can be traversed
with the mouse or the keyboard. Menu is the name of a menu widget and x and y are the root coordinates at which to display the menu. If
entry is omitted or an empty string, the menu's upper left corner is positioned at the given point. Otherwise entry gives the index of an
entry in menu and the menu will be positioned so that the entry is positioned over the given point.
EXAMPLE
How to attach a simple popup menu to a widget.
# Create a menu
set m [menu .popupMenu]
$m add command -label "Example 1" -command bell
$m add command -label "Example 2" -command bell
# Create something to attach it to
pack [label .l -text "Click me!"]
# Arrange for the menu to pop up when the label is clicked
bind .l <1> {tk_popup .popupMenu %X %Y}
