menuitis
     
        /men"yoo-i:"tis/ A notional disease suffered by software with
        an obsessively simple-minded {menu} interface and no escape.
        Hackers find this intensely irritating and much prefer the
        flexibility of command-line or language-style interfaces,
        especially those customisable via {macro}s or a
        special-purpose language in which one can encode useful hacks.
     
        See {user-obsequious}, {drool-proof paper}, {WIMP}, {for the
        rest of us}.
