Creating menus in C++

Post by Durandal »

Just out of pure curiosity, does anyone know how to create console menus in C++? I'm talking about the kind that list some options and allow you to scroll through them with the arrow keys, with your selection being highlighted by the console.

I only know how to create windows menus. They are done by using resource files.

There's also S-Lang, but that's not really standard on Unix systems.
