i still don't understand what this has to do with *.ksg files but i can certainly add a brief section to autoload files as menu options.**

the menu uses an array called named menuoption$(1 TO ...) and obviously needn't be dimmed for only 9 or so options. on the other hand it might be best to anyway so that it can become a SUB. then you would dim as global shared (or something) so that the SUB that reads a dir list of *.ksg files can put the list into the array, then when you call the SUB it hasn't lost the contents of the array.

of course you could just stick my stuff in the main module like i tend to do, but that wouldn't be attractive would it?

each option in the menu can be up to 27 bytes long. with the little arrows guide on the side, 26. overly long fields will be truncated, so don't worry about the size of the string that goes into the routine- no worries - sample field "My name is Inigo Montoya" becomes "My Name is Inigo Montoy" by default, that shows the truncator is working properly :)

anyway, there ya go. hope you like it- and as documented, if you don't like the up/down arrows on the side you can hardcode the option as zero.
