[comp.sys.sgi] advanced menu capability needed

aihaug@AUSTIN.LOCKHEED.COM (Daniel A Haug) (07/12/89)

Is anyone in NeWS land familiar with some of the standard menu capabilities
on a lisp-machine?  In particular, TV:MULTIPLE-CHOOSE-MENU and
TV:CHOOSE-VARIABLE-VALUES?  I desperately need this functionality
running in NeWS.  In addition to the actual menu functionality, it
is important to be able to invoke this from a C program (thus I need
a CPS interface to it), as a simple function call, and the menu items
need to be passed in at run time.

I know this is all quite possible in NeWS, but my question is: has anyone
done anything similar to this?  I'll take anything.  However, being a
real novice NeWS hacker, I am quickly overwhelmed by the complexity of
some of the stuff I've seen so far.  Any additional comments are extremely
welcomed.

Much thanks in advance,
