   Here's both menu & items wrappers for ncurses based on curses_panel.
   Feedback appreciated before I try to add support for other functions.

   Regards,
   Fabian

   Would someone please comment on the patch, I can't because I don't know anything about the Python C API.

   The patch should be amended for python3, then:

   • PyType_Ready() should be used instead of "ob_type = &PyType_Type;"
   • The demo contains "Option choisie :" which should be translated :-)
   • the call::
     PyErr_SetString(PyExc_RuntimeError,
     "remove_lom: can't find Menu Object");
     is wrong: the calling function does not check the error condition, it will be ignored in any case because the only called is the tp_dealloc
   • find_po() is defined but never called
   • the free() method does not do anything, it contains commented out code.

   In short, this patch needs work.

   I took the curses.panel module as a starting point as well but have made rather a bit more progress with the extension. The attached patch includes a full wrapper around the curses menu extension, tests, documentation, and the necessary additions to setup.py. Feedback would be much appreciated as I'm also most of the way through a wrapper for the curses form extension and would like to get it finished up shortly.
