Hi all,

Is it possible at all to build a graphical menu system without X,
using Perl and modules ? I mean, is there some high-level toolkit
(module) for Perl that offers dialog boxes, windows, etc, needed for
menus ? Context is, after booting from a USB key, a graphical menu
proposes the user some choices.

Is this (easily) possible with Perl at all ?

Cheers,

Al

Check out Curses::UI on CPAN.

But that's a text-based menu system, not a graphical menu system.
