It's crazy that while searching for a tool, I stop 3 times on software made by the same person!

1.)
For my main project (my multi kernel boot disk (on demand only)) I use for years the small choice tool CHOIX by Horst Schaeffer (pbats32.zip - https://www.horstmuc.de/horst.htm).
It's really small (2Kb), case sensitive and as long as there is a key to press, you can have an error level to have a goto.
It allow me to present all the possible choices in one screen.
It's a really great tools, you should use it.
But there is a cost, when you reach a certain number of choice, the friendly side take a hit:

So I decide to look once more for a tool that give a friendly interface and a lot of possible choice.

2.)
I found WBAT (12Kb) by Horst Schaeffer (wbat250.zip - https://www.horstmuc.de/ui.htm) and build a nice box with fake buttons and mouse support :

But 12Kb was a little big compare to the 2Kb for CHOIX, so I decide to look once more for a tool that give a friendly interface and a lot of possible choice.

3.)
I finally stop to PMENUE (2Kb) by Horst Schaeffer (pmenue23.zip - https://www.sac.sk/files.php?d=18&p=12), it's the ancestor of WBAT
I was force to split my menu into sub-choice menu (of course I could have done it with CHOIX but keys are less friendly than list...) so I have this, selectable items in list in a box and mouse support:
