Module for Menu/Form Applications

mvaline has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I need to create some basic applications that will include hierarchical menus and data entry forms. They need to be run from the command line, not through a GUI interface. They also need to work on both Windows and UNIX machines. What is the best module to use? Should I use the Curses modules or is there something less complicated?

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    For menus there's Term::Menu and the similarly named Term::Menus which don't require Curses or anything else. Neither does forms though. I would use Curses for those.
