Hello Brian,

*MENU = *DSPF + *MSGF

+ *MENU

One kind of menu. Not all of them. When I learned about creating help panels myself, I immediately found the included help formatting for menu panel groups very appealing. Plus, menus get formatted automatically, scroll automatically if entries won't fit one screen, look much more IBM'ish, have not three objects for a single menu but just a single one.

On the minus-side, you are *forced* to provide online help elements for menu items. Wait. Is that really a minus? ;-)

so we can continue to maintain/build green-screen menus without SDA, even if it's removed.

You can do so with any text editor (aka SEU, SEU, and SEU), presuming they don't remove the crtmnu *cmd. :-)

:wq! PoC
