This may already be implemented, so forgive me if I haven't researched
dselect enough: how about using a config file where we can remap all the
keystrokes? My first thought when running dselect was, "WTF?" My second
was, "How do I quit? The command line couldn't possibly be as confusing."
I'm not knocking the program; it's really cool. I just can't handle the
user interface. Maybe some hacker can rip out the base of dselect and
turn it into a library (libdebian?), so that people can easily design
programs with the functionality of dselect, but with a custom UI.
