Figure 17
In the diagram of Figure 17, each box represents a menu screen that is called up by selecting
in the prior menu the option number in the top-left corner of the box. The title of the menu is
contained in the box.
In general, five-sided boxes are menus which lead to other menus via the selection of option
indexes, and rectangular boxes are menus which are composed entirely of commands. For
commands, the options are listed to the right of the menu box.
