     Select Options
 
     There are two ways to select options: check boxes and radio
     buttons.
 
     Check boxes allow you to select any number of options from a list.
     An X indicates that the option is selected.
 
               Selected  ────── [X] Option One
               Not selected ─── [ ] Option Two
               Selected  ────── [X] Option Three
 
     Click the box or press the SPACEBAR to make a selection in a check
     box.
 
     Radio buttons allow you to select only one item from a list. This
     list is contained in a box. A bullet (•) indicates a selection.
                                 ┌──────────────┐
               Selected  ────── │ (•) Button 1 │

                                 └──────────────┘
 
     Click the button to select an option. You can also move the cursor
     to the list of options and use the ARROW keys to move among the
     options.
