Read its description.

When a hero with inventory comes near the seller, a box with all avaible items comes up.
You use UP+DOWN+LEFT and ESC to control it.
UP+DOWN scrolls up/down on the list of items and ESC purchases the currently selected item.
When you have purchased the wanted items, just press the LEFT key and the box will disappear.

If you want to make one,use DGUI

Take arrow key events, change variables indicating the current position/state, update the multiboard display accordingly.

You can "highlight" (=change the colour) of the current row in a multiboard. You can go up a line with right arrow key and down with left arrow key for example.

EDIT: Wow, had this tab open for 1 hour, forgot to refresh and didn't see WaterKnight's post.

It really depends on what you exactly want to do, which is why I have given such a general description.

Maybe start with something simple. Make a grid of x*y columns/rows. Create a variable curX and a variable curY. See curX/curY as 0-based belonging to the left-top corner of the multiboard. React on key events and increment/decrement curX/curY. Pay attention to the limits. Always update the multiboard by clearing the last cell and writing a "X" in the new cell (which is defined by curX/curY).
