176. Simple menu selection ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When selecting one item from a screen menu, there is no need for each menu option to be tagged with a number; it could just as easily be a letter. Eg L = LOAD, S = SAVE, X = EXIT, etc.. You can then easily translate this into a number, so that you can use ON ... GOTO/GOSUB . A useful refinement would be to replace the GET$ with CHR$(GETAND&DF) , so that the Caps/Shift Lock state wouldn't matter. 10 REPEAT:G%=INSTR$("LSX...etc.",GET$):UNTILG% 20 ON G% GOTO 110,180,250 etc.
