Wtreqinfo displays a menu on the console screen, then restricts input to the relevant set of hotkeys. There is currently no support for the use of the mouse, a menu item must be selected by pressing its hotkey, or ENTER in the case of the default item. You can press Escape to close the menu without making a choice.

The available hotkeys are the letters "a" through "z" and the numbers 1 through 9 (not 0). The letters are not case sensitive, so you cannot have letter "a" and letter "A" used separately. By default, the hotkey for a menu option is its first letter, which can be upper- or lowercase, but you can assign a specific hotkey to an item.

When a menu is onscreen, wtreqinfo allows you to select an option by pressing its hotkey, or select the default option, if one is defined, by pressing ENTER. You can also press the Escape key to close the menu without selecting anything, but no response is given to any other input.
