-- Menu API
--
-- Written By: GhastTearz
-- Version: 2.0.0
--
-- This program is a simple and flexible way to get
-- menus in your program.
--
-- The format of menu strings is very simple. Each
-- line of the string is a line in the menu. To add
-- a "link" to a function or screen just as a tag
-- somewhere in the line e.g. "@tag". See the demo
-- program for more information at
-- https://pastebin.com/ZNYdQzaR
--
-- KEYBINDINGS
-- w, k, up           =  move up the menu
-- a, h, left         =  go to previous screen
-- s, j, down         =  move down the menu
-- d, l, right, enter = select an item
-- q, x = quit
-- page up = go up a page
-- page down = go down a page
