Dear monks, What's the best way to create a menu script with a load of functions? I don't want to pass parameters on the command line so I'd like to avoid Get::Opt. I'm assuming something like this but I'm sure there are plenty of better ways. Please enlighten me... Thanks!! 

my %hash = (
            "func"   => \$func,
            "func2  =>  \$func2,
            ...
            "func1000  =>  \$func1000

);

while () {
        &menu();
        print "select: ";
        chomp($string = <STDIN>);
        if ($hash{$string}) {
                $hash{$string}->();
        } else {
                print "No such command: $string\n";
                sleep 1;
                system("clear");
        }

}
sub quit { exit; }

sub func { blah... }
sub func2 { blah2... }


sub menu {
                while( my ($k, $v) = each %hash) {
                        print "$k \n";
                     
                }
}
