Patches against texinfo > manual are welcome I may be able to do that, however, I need to learn it myself. I don't really mind reading code either, but a general idea about where the drawing of the menu entries is located would be helpful. I quick check shows that GRUB2 has 287 .c files, but I suspect that most of the menu customization is handled in the term/ directory. Are there and specifications, design documents, examples, or other places that I can look at to better understand GRUB2 menu customization? >> I've looked in info, faqs, the GRUB2 wiki, and google.

It comes up properly now. Thanks. -- Bruce
