Someone asked for this facility on comp.windows.x and as I could with one
as well .. here is one. It is also an example use of the Athena
Simple Menu widget.

XMenu - provide a popup menu from a shell script etc.
This little toolkit program produces a popup menu on the screen taking
the command line arguments as menu entries. If an argument contains
a non-escaped '=' (equals sign) the string to the left is the name
displayed in the menu and the string to the right is the text output
when this menu button is pressed.
A special argument "line" can be used to draw a dividing line between
successive menu entries.
A menu title can be given as an argument after a "-heading" flag.
The menu is only popped down when a menu button is pressed.
By default the menu is popped up below and to the right of the current
pointer position, use "-geometry" to position the menu at a particular
point (and in a particular size).
Examples:
xmenu -heading "Choose Files by Suffix" Compressed="*.Z" \
"C sources"="*.c" "Headers"="*.h" \
line line " Cancel"
xmenu Hello="Hello World" line " " " " line Goodbye="Goodbye World"

.TH XMENU l "19 June 1990"
.SH NAME
xmenu \- provide simple popup menus to shell scripts
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBxmenu\fP [-heading "menu title"] [menu_entry[=output_value] | line]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fIxmenu\fP provides a quick and easy way of producing a single popup
menu for use by shell scripts. The \fI-heading\fP is used to set the menu's
title, all other arguments are used as items in the menu. If an argument
contains an equals sign then the string to the left of the equals is used as
the displayed menu item and the the string to the right is used as the text
output when the item is pressed. The argument "line" is recognised as
denoting a line separating menu items.
By default the menu is popped up to the right and below of the current pointer
position but this can be overridden using the standard toolkit "-geometry".
.SH EXAMPLES
.DS
xmenu -heading "Choose Files by Suffix" Compressed="*.Z" \\
"C sources"="*.c" "Headers"="*.h" \\
line line " Cancel"
xmenu Hello="Hello World" line " " " " line Goodbye="Goodbye World"
