Macer - A tiny public access handler

I wrote this a few months ago when my box was gaming central (if you liked tetris and slashem) at school and I had a bunch of people sshing in all the time.  I wanted to have a dgamelaunch sort of setup, but it looked confusing and I never got chroot to work quite right, so I wrote this.
http://macer.sf.net

It's in AUR under 'macer'.  I don't know if anyone has any use for this, but I figured I might as well put it up.  It's kind of like dgamelaunch, but without chroot ... or mail ... or, really, anything special.  It's just a ncurses interface that only allows users to run specific programs.  To use it, simply set a user's shell as '/usr/bin/macer' with chsh.  You can set up menus in /etc/macer, with in the format $username.macer.  If you add an entry for a shell prompt, like b:Bash:/bin/bash , you can let certain users have real access.

Advice welcome!
