I think the subroutine is not entirely correct. Without te Carp which I don't have on my system I came up with this working version:
sub menu {
my ($title, @option) = @{shift(@_)};
my (@name, @action);
($name[@name], $action[@action]) = splice @option, 0, 2
while @option;
while(1) {
print "\n$title\n";
print map "$_. $name[$_ - 1]\n", 1 .. @name;
print '> ';
chomp (my $choice = readline *STDIN);
if ($choice and $choice > 0 and $choice <= @action) {
my $do_action = $action[$choice-1];
return unless defined $do_action;
$do_action->() if 'CODE' eq ref $action[$choice-1];
menu($action[$choice-1]) if 'ARRAY' eq ref $action[$choice-1];
+
} else {
print "Invalid choice: $choice\n"
}
}
}
