set menu

newname=string

A short descriptive string used to identify a menu. This option is used to create a new menu or to change the name of an existing menu. When a new menu is being created, this option must be specified along with the “range” option.

When an existing menu name is being changed, this option must be specified along with either “range” or “name,” where “name” is the current name of the menu.

If the string contains spaces, enclose it in double quotes.

title=string subtitle=string

The title and optional subtitle for a particular menu. The title is displayed above the custom menu and the subtitle, if specified, is displayed immediately below it. These strings are shown to the user accessing the custom menu as a means to identify, explain, or describe a custom menu. Note that when creating a new custom menu, the “title” option is required. If the string contains spaces, enclose it in double quotes.

sortby={nonekeylabel}

The method by which menu items for the custom menu are ordered and displayed to the user.

none

Organizes the menu items and display them in the order in which they are defined.

key

Sorts the menu items by the keys assigned to the menu items. The sort is case-insensitive.

label

Sorts the menu items based on an alpha-numeric sort of the labels assigned to the menu label.

columns=1-5

The number of columns to display the menu items in to the user. This option is used in order to help avoid scrolling by the user. For instance, a custom menu with many entries may want to display the menu items over 3 columns whereas a custom menu with only a few menu items will appear better using single column. Note that when using multiple columns an attempt should be made to avoid long menu item labels to help avoid possible horizontal scrolling. The default is 1.
