It's mouse-driven (excuse the crappily-drawn mousepointer.tga - I had to create it because dpmod didn't provide it, the MenuQC will crash if the file doesn't exist) and the only functions you can click is "Options" and "Quit". The other functions don't work.
It looks like you define the menu using the *.menu files inside the /menu/ folder.

Oh. Nice. But why? Why?
It's so old and so ugly and it's a pain to create menu files for it because you have to manually specify the parent item. And it's deprecated and obsolete and both!
I think Nexuiz contains a better version of it, too. I'm not exactly sure where to find it in the revision list but it's been in the CVS, so it probably has survived the port.
DPMod's menu was a spin-off from Nexuiz that I've never finished, just started and that was already old when the menu was mostly finished in Nexuiz.
I'm pretty sure that the builtin file is incomplete, too, because I've used Nexuiz's mbuiltin.qc as main reference file for everything.
I'd strongly advice you to at least update that file (if you haven't already done so) or switch to div0's menu (he's currently writing it) which should be a lot easier to understand and work with than Nexuiz's current menu.
Cheers,

Black: yeah, the point was to have something simpler to get ideas from, I would never *base* anything on the old dpmod menuqc. But I would also rather not learn menuqc based on Nexuiz menuqc, since it's way insane. div0's menuqc seems to be coming along nicely, but I have no idea what the code in it is like.
What we'd really need, is some really straightforward and simple documentation, about how it works, and a simple example. div0 said it's only about 5 builtins, so how hard can it be to make a tutorial/documentation about it, if you know how it works?
