Im attempting to make a quick menu and would love some help. i would also love help on how to make it so instead of opening lua file and it auto opens id like a console command to open the menu.

--Update--

Ok so i found a way to do the commands. but i need a way to open the menu without having to run the file over and over.

You really need to learn lua function, and Gmod hook, ideology before jumping into GUI for any of it.
Pseudo code

Code: [Select]

function mydermamenu ( any, var )
...your code
end
hook.Add(<i forget>, uniquenameformyderma, mydermamenu)

In Gmod, there are 'hooks' and commands to monitor console and or chat.
Research chat hooks and console command to look for some command, then run that function to open the menu.

I really can't explain it more than that in the time I have.
Learn functions.
Learn Gmod console command or chat hooks.
Go from there.
