How to use

def main():
    main_menu = Menu(prompt="Main Menu")
    main_menu.items.append(FunctionItem("Item 1", __item1))
    main_menu.items.append(FunctionItem("Item 2", __item2))
    
    sub_menu1 = Menu(prompt="Sub-Menu 1", parent=main_menu)
    sub_menu1.items.append(FunctionItem("Item 1", __item1))
    sub_menu1.items.append(FunctionItem("Item 2", __item2))
    
    main_menu.items.append(MenuItem(sub_menu1))    
    main_menu.run()

def __item1():
    print('lorem ipsum...')

def __item2():
    print('dolor sit amet...')

The menu will run until the user chooses Quit ("Q"), which will exit the application. If the menu has a parent menu, an additional Back ("B") option will be rendered which will return the user to the parent menu.

See the python_simple_menu/examples directory for other usages.
