I'm glad someone else felt this needed improvement.  I've never much cared for
the "multi-page" menus.  Thank you!

May I suggest a slight refinement?  When there are a lot of messages, it still
takes a while to present the initial menu, which I think those who would
appreicate your enhancement would agree is rather useless anyway.

What about presenting a text prompter straight away for the user to enter a
matching string saves a step.  Perhaps this could be done only if the number of
methods is greater than the menu can hold, since the menus have text searching
bulit-in anyway.

And thanks for not requiring the wildcards.  Wildcards require Shift and most
often simple case-insensitive matching insufficient anyway.
