I have done some additional testing, and gotten it a bit close to what I was 
looking for. I had to modify the cat.c to eliminate the printing of the 
arguments and file name, and added a Press Enter to return menu line.

With the below isolinux.cfg the options do display the files, and pressing 
enter than returns to the vesamenu.

Don't know if there is a better way of doing this, or if what kinds of systems 
might have problems with vesamenu.c32. I like the simple test.png for 
putting a simple logo at the bottom, but if it would cause it not to work on 
systems, I'd be willing to use the menu.c32 or even go back to the regular 
system.
