For the people that missed my original thread, I've been working on a
dialog replacement for ports. The program is a
a) free (MIT licensed)
b) smart enough to deal with mutually exclusive options and user-input options
c) have the ability have "long descriptions" of options
d) more

The source code that I've been working on is here:
https://code.google.com/p/dialog4ports/source/browse/

This program could integrate well with bapt's patch.
Comments, testing, review is welcome - especially in concert with bapt's patch.
