Hi all,

This packages lets you quickly pick items from ad hoc menus (for example spelling corrections). It uses `posframe` and `avy` (both on
GNU ELPA already). 
 
Code can be found at https://github.com/clemera/frog-menu.

Looks fun.  Not sure if the playful name will work to its benefit or
will hide it from potential users (compared to a name that explicitly
advertizes its similarity to "avy" or something like that).

Hm, there is already one called `avy-menu` by which `frog-menu` was inspired. I did not want to call it `avy-posframe` because posframe should be only one possible display option (for now it is the only one though).

Then let's hope the playful name will work to its benefit ;-)
