Good morning everyone,

While vi, cat more or less can work (see what I did there..)  for looking at 
every day Linux Administration, sometimes I think it's just easier to work with 
a menu based interface, where you can select and navigate messages and options, 
with a little bit of color, possibly function key interaction, and a working 
interface, similar to using make menuconfig for compiling the kernel and 
similar to performing a legacy text based install on a new system. Is there a 
master list of those kinds of apps that have a menu for looking at various 
things?  Can anyone who thinks of more of these apps rattle off some other 
options such as:

abc - for reading logs
xyz for text based chat
def - for a menu based browser
ghi - for a text mail client, etc

mc (midnight commander) for file copy/move/delete/read/edit/... (also: 
standalone commands mcview, mcedit)

Regards.
