Hello monks! i have programmed a basic address book and everything works, except that i am still using basic option selections with numbers, could someone please point me to a tutorial where i could learn how to program a menu interface for my program where i could choose the options via the directional keys and enter? thank you in advance

      If you prefer a text-based interface, there's always Curses. For a gnome-ish look, check out Gtk2 - it'll help if you're familiar with gnome/ gtk programming, however.
