phil 94c7405838 Tweek the "no shortcut" code.
MC_NOSHORTKEY to NOSHORTCUT
   added option "shortcut" to menuc input language.
   added example of this kind of menu in testm.

hubertf 4e87e20dda Changes:
* bring closer to KNF
 * when selecting a item in a menu, call the opt_action() callback with
   a pointer to the struct menudesc, so the callback has a chance to find
   out which item was selected. Having a seperate callback for each
   item is ok for small menus, but not for ones with many objects.
 * Add menu-option MC_NOSHORTCUT to not print letters ("a: ", ...)
   in front of list items. Again, this is for menues with lots of entries
   as e.g. the upcoming sysinst set_timezone() function composes.
 * Fix a long-standing bug WRT pagewise scrolling - the cursor is now
   properly placed one page up/down

thorpej 0687dad67e Make this work again now that curses no longer does an implicit tgetent()
via initscr() by calling t_getstr() with curses' internal terminal info
initialized in setterm() (which is called by initscr()).

XXX THIS IS A HORRIBLE KLUDGE!  ...and I'm almost embarassed to commit it.
XXX It really should be fixed by using normal curses facilities.

cgd da4d528c80 need to provide an exit string for dynamic menus. hardcodes "Exit".
not pretty, but no worse than what the code did before.

cgd 8c3bc73ea2 provide the ability to do horizontal centering of menus, and make that
the default.  XXX: currently can't be turned back on for individual menus
if overridden by the menu definition's default setting.

cgd b12d2926fa provide a way to set the string used for the 'Exit' menu item. 1999-06-20 02:07:18 +00:00
cgd 27ddbc286a size menus without titles correctly. also, correctly position titles so
that they don't have to be coded to include leading spaces.

cgd 96c4c464ea * be more descriptive with the windor/screen too small for menu messages
(say width or height).
* work harder to make menu fit width-wise.  (if necessary, move the menu
  further left, and if that's not good enough exit with an error.)
* move menu system initialization out of process_menu() so that it can
  be called earlier (e.g. by the sysinst main()), since it initializes
  curses and other code might want to access the curses data structures
  before process_menu() is invoked.

phil 8f97042b69 Fixed a couple of simple bugs, added data returned for arrow keys for

change what is returned for arrow keys?)
