For what it's worth, the best dos menuing system I ever found was called
Mark's Menu. It was shareware, but it was fully functional. Besides
the disclaimer that shipped with the software being the funniest thing
I'd ever read, it also had many functions, menus, submenus, I believe it
even had access levels, though I'm not positive about that one.
I think the file name was mmenu401.zip, but I've just performed a quick
search for that and didn't turn it up anywhere. Perhaps a search of
simtelnet or similar places will turn up a copy.
I don't recall theree being any graphics in the program, because it
worked perfectlfy with my screen reader, so I'm pretty sure it was all text.
Good luck, hope you find something usable, I know menu systems are
difficult to find something that works and does everything an individual
might want. I eventually gave up on menuing systems entirely, mostly
because it was faster for me to just type the commands at the command
prompt (something I still do today, even under windows)

I am looking for a fairly simple, ideally text-only, app menu system.

'Dialog boxes for DOS batch:
menus, buttons, input fields, checkboxes, radio buttons, list selection
Easy handling, no ANSI stuff to deal with - colors are specified by name.
WBAT runs under all Windows versions or plain DOS.
Features:
Layout for box with text and control elements - all elements can be freely
arranged
Quick box with specifications in the command line
Selection from batch generated lists (e.g. DIR file lists)
Text pages with color attributes
INI file with defaults and preferences
Win NT/2000 compatible handling of variables
Mouse handling is supported in a GUI box as well as in full screen mode. Of
course WBAT will also work under plain DOS.
DEMO.BAT supplied with full handling details (instead of a DOC file).
