Add missing files to menu subdirectory
Just realised that the patch I sent before did not contain the new files added. I am attaching the new files (to be put in "menu" subdirectory). - Murali

+A .menu file can be used to describe basic menu structures which can be converted into
+C code which can then be compiled into a .c32 file for use with SYSLINUX. The format
+of a .menu file is similar to an ini file, but with important differences.
+
+COMMENTS and Blank lines
+------------------------
+Lines starting with # and ; are treated as comments.
+Blank lines are used to separate the attributes of one menu item
+from another. Multiple blank lines are equivalent to a single one.
+In other contexts Blank lines are not significant.
+
+Menus
+-----
+Each menu declaration starts with a line containing the name of menu in [ ].
+This name is used for internal purposes only and is not visible to the user of
+the system.
+
+The menu declaration is followed by lines which set the attributes of the menu.
+This is followed by a blank line and followed by declaration of menu items in
+that menu.
+
+Currently supported menu attributes are
+title: the title of this menu
+row,col: position where menu should be displayed (defaults to system choosing optimal place)
+
+
+Global Settings
+---------------
+All lines which occur before the first menu declaration is considered as
+a global declaration. Currently supported global settings are
+
+title: the title of the whole menu system
+top,left,bot,right: limits of the window in which menu system should use to display
+ menu. Defaults to 1,1,23,78
+
+Menu item
+---------
+Each menu item is declared by setting the following attributes
+
+item: The string displayed to the user
+info: Additional information displayed in the status bar
+type: exitmenu,submenu or run indicating whether this item represents
+ an entry which exits this menu, goes to a sub menu or
+ executes something in SYSLINUX
+data: In case of exitmenu, this has no meaning
+ In case of submenu, this is the name of the submenu
+ In case of run, this is string to be passed to SYSLINUX for execution

-* Read menu structure from config files
- - This will eliminate the need for recompiling the code, especially
- for the simple menus
-* Features to add
- - Parse commandline arguments
+* Write COMBOOT code to read .menu files and parse them directly
+ - take the name of menu file to parse from commandline
+* menugen.py is still useful as user can see what the C code will
+ be and modify that as required.
* Help support
- Beef up help.c so that the text file can be larger than one page, and
user can scroll down page to view extra text.
