One of the most difficult things for those who are nor familiarized with Assembly: Menus with inverted Bars!

It was never so easy to create your own MENU with options and suboptions in pure assembly.
With this dynamic library you can create it in seconds.

You have just to define this options:

1 - ld hl,TXTSUBMENU (For example, below)
2 - ld d, 'X screen coordinate'
3 - ld e, 'Y screen coordinate'
4 - ld b, 'Initial menu option'
5 - ld c, 'size of the inverted bar'
call MAKEMENU

TXTSUBMENU: db ' MSX1 Games',0,' MSX2 Games',0,' MSX Turbo-R Games',1,' Documents',1,' Settings',0,' Default Settings',1,' Security',1,' Help ',1,' Run',0FFH
TXTORDER: db 1,1,1,1,1,1 (One number for each menu option. It defines the default suboption)

Just that! Enjoy it!

Deadly boring things made easy, great! I think I'll search up this code when I next time need something like this.
Development idea: Add also possibility to add empty line in middle of menu that will be automatically skipped. This way people can categorize menu items in different boxes. (If they select to draw boxes around their menus)

BTW first time I see MSXPen! Pretty damn cool tool!

Kkk. Well, it's never to late to create another software using this library.
Remember that it creates the inverted bar on the fly no matter the alphabet you use.
And Nyyrikki, an empty line is a good idea. I will update it.
