They seem much less complex than the example you give. I've also glanced /usr/share/doc/menu/menu.txt.gz, which mentions that such capabilities exist in the menu system's rather hideous custom programming language, though without explaining why it's needed.

Perhaps this has something to do with the hostility you're showing? > It's nice to see that you XSTL-boosters have investigated the requirements > in such depth. :-P It would be nice to see you discussing the subject without being snide, but perhaps that's too much to expect of you. Pity. As one of the current system's creators, you are, obviously, more familiar with it than most of us, but that's no excuse for being an ass. Craig
