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.
