To Albrecht's point, a small UI sugg, perhaps for later once the app is stable:

An Fl_Browser might be a good way to provide for more options in the future. A UI something like the following might also allow text descriptions, and with separate scrolls for the 'options' and 'settings', it'd allow for multiple sub options and long text descriptions that might scroll off the page. It'd also make it easier for the user to find stuff if the options were in alphabetic order.
