PyOpMenu is a python based script for basic system administration. It follows the Gomenu script guidelines (http://fossies.org/unix/privat/old/gomenu-0.8.1.tar.gz/index_af.html). OpMenu uses .mnu files to build a screen menu that allow to low levels sysadmins and system operators do basic and preconfigured actions (f.e. restart a webserver, check the status of a daemon, etc...) You can find some basic .mnu examples files in the repository. All menu options have to begin with $MENU key and all the actions have to contain .sh or sudo string. A lot of Gomenu .mnu must be compatibles. For automatic start of the program you must add the next lines in the .bash_profile of the user: exec ./opmenu.py Requirements: * Python 2.X * main.mnu file TODO * English translation * Error control * Log system * Improve Look&Feel Comments and request are welcome.
