Input PadHi Folks!

I'm developing a monitoring software (ok, really I wrote only
few functions of the software...) and I would like to have a
way, different from the browser, to select among about 1000
histograms.
Actually, I want to fetch all the histograms, stored in a file,
related to one of the 112 channels of the TOF system for the
AMS experiment. These channels have names like "2.05N", i.e.
Plane.CounterSide.
I'd like to have one of these possibilities:
1) from a menu I select the Plane, getting the Counter sub-menu
and finally the Side sub-menu;
2) I type "2.05N" in a input pad, and then press "OK".

I have of course a function that asks the string "2.05N" from
the shell and then computes the histograms identifiers, but
it is not so good. Usually I'm looking the graphical interface,
that hides the shell...

Thanks,
