    Can someone give me do 10k' version of how to use these menu commands?

    GR - Gosub Return Menu
    GS - Gosub Menu

    I've been curious about usecases where these commands would be relevant.

    Thx,

    A use case might be say Account Settings.

    If you want to have that option available on all or many menus, you can "GOSUB account" menu from wherever you want it, and then the "Quit" option on the Account Settings menu would be "GOSUB RETURN". This means that it would always take the user back to the menu they were on when they selected account settings.

    Since its also possible to have "global" commands that work from all or
    a subset of menus, that would be one place where this could come in really handy.

    Hello Kevin!

    lets say you want to have "chat" available from all or some of your menus rather than create several versions of "chat" (1 for each place you would want that menu to run), just create 1 menu with exit being gosub return

    in each of the other menus where you wish to call your "chat", you would use "gosub chat"

    hope that helps,
    Micheal
