The hidden menu interface
=========================

   When your terminal is dumb or you request GRUB of hiding the menu
interface explicitly with the command `hiddenmenu' (Note:
hiddenmenu), GRUB doesn't show the menu interface (Note: Menu
interface) and automatically boots the default entry, unless
interrupted by pressing <ESC>.

   When you interrupt the timeout and your terminal is dumb, GRUB falls
back to the command-line interface (Note: Command-line interface).
