Any change for a multi line menu? about terminal-kit HOT 5 CLOSED

By multi-line menu, do you mean a drop-down menu?

There is one, but it is still in alpha version. It's part of the "Document Model" currently under development.

You can see it working by running the script located in sample/document/drop-down-menu-test.js.

There is no documentation on that for instance, because the API may change during the development process.

I just want to replace the npm module terminal-menu as it has node 0.12*> issues, Ive had to switch to inquirer JS ... Built a unlimited level menu system for a terminal application with inquirer ... haha .. would be cool to have a feature like that in terminal-kit... Can't belive there is no multi-level menu module out there for node... I may make one myself.

Okey, I have checked 'terminal-menu'.

This feature exists in terminal-kit, in alpha version, part of the "Document Model", and the sample code is here:
sample/document/column-menu-test.js

tl;dr:

var termkit = require( 'terminal-kit' ) ;
var term = termkit.terminal ;

var document = term.createDocument() ;
var columnMenu = termkit.ColumnMenu.create( {
    parent: document ,
    x: 0 , // x and
    y: 5 , // y position of the top-left corner
    items: [
        {
            content: 'File' , // menu item text
            value: 'file' // menu item value (passed to the 'submit' event)
        } ,
        ... // more menu item
    ]
} ) ;

columnMenu.on( 'submit' , function( value ) {
    // submit code
} ) ;

document.giveFocusTo( columnMenu ) ;  // give the focus to the menu now

Very cool - Thanks I'll take a look at the example when I can!

@kmgilbert100 This feature now exists out of the document model: .singleColumnMenu()
