function CUI(m)
n=1
l=#m
while true do
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,2)
for i=1, l, 1 do
if i==n then print(i, " ["..m[i].."]") else print(i, " ", m[i]) end
end
print("Select a number[arrow up/arrow down]")
a, b= os.pullEventRaw()
if a == "key" then
if b==200 and n>1 then n=n-1 end
if b==208 and n<=l then n=n+1 end
if b==28 then break end
end
end
term.clear() term.setCursorPos(1,1)
return n
end
supply this code with a table (e.g. {"a","b"}) of options and it returns the number of the chosen one. I will feature it in a tutorial later on.Posted 18 March 2012 - 01:30 PM

To give you something simple to start with you can make a simple menu like using print and if elseif statements..
print ("1) Option 1")
print ("2) Option 2")
print ("3) Option 3")
print ("4) Option 4")
print ("5) Option 5")
print ("6) Option 6")
print()
write ("Enter your selection: ")
local input = read()
if read == 1 then
-- do option 1 stuffs
elseif read == 2 then
-- do option 2 stuffs
-- and so on..
else
print ("invalid option selected")
end
