Sounds like heaven to me, but I doubt that's what you intended ? You need to think more about your analogies ;-)
You got the message! :-)
Are you sure ? Your post read that you would prefere the version with NO menu rather than the counter example you put up.....
I'm now confused about what point you are trying to make.
I was simply saying that a menu with twenty or thirty entries is fine, and useful, but that one with hundreds of entries isn't useful. To cover all the possible commands available at the command line a menu system would have hundreds (thousands?) of entries.
