scmenu

Simple menu class for future python projects. Requires curses.

Usage:

In short:

choice = scmenu.Menu(str title, list options, str infobar, 
                     str selected, dict settings).show()

• options is a list containing pairs of ('OptionName', 'optioncommand')
• When an item is selected, the optioncommand of the selected option is returned
• Pressing back (default 4) will return back (useful for nesting menus)
• String argument infobar sets the text of the information bar at the top (default '')
• Int argument selected pre-defines the selected item number (default 0)
• Dict argument settings changes some other settings. Please refer to docstring.
• Cannot be used in interactive mode

Example:

sampleSettings = {'keys': ('1', '2', '3', '4'), 'bullet': '>'}
sampleOptions = [('Option 1', 5),
                ('Option 2', 'opt2'),
                ('Something else', 'opt3')]
sampleBar = '1: up, 2: down, 3: select, 4: back'
sampleMenu = Menu('Example menu', sampleOptions, sampleBar,
                0, sampleSettings)
print sampleMenu.show()
