I would like to run this code in the backround of the program for friendly user GUI...
code:
import GUI
View.Set ("screen")
var first: int                 % The menus.
var item : array 1 .. 4of int         % The menu items.
var name : array 1 .. 5 of string (5) :=
    init ("Help?", "Save",  "---", "Load","Quit")

procedure MenuSelected
    for i : 1 .. 4
        if item (i) = GUI.GetEventWidgetID then
            Text.Locate (maxrow, 2)
            put name (i) + " selected               " ..
        end if
    end for
end MenuSelected

% Create the menus
first := GUI.CreateMenu ("File")
item (1) := GUI.CreateMenuItem (name (5), GUI.Quit)
for cnt : 1 .. 4
    item (cnt) := GUI.CreateMenuItem (name (cnt),
        MenuSelected)
end for
loop
    exit when GUI.ProcessEvent
end loop

%rest of the programm...

Chances are you two are either the same person, or boyfriend and boyfriend. Why don't you just leave before you make some of the mods angry with you.
