Description
This is great! I wondered why core didn't have a button to show you all active modules. I'd also like to see all non enabled modules so I can uninstall and delete them from the directory.
thanks again!

which one is better,either making Unused modules page as 'MENU_NORMAL_ITEM' or 'MENU_CALLBACK' ?

@bredi Thanks ! :-) The objective of this module is to display used modules to all users of your websites, in order to share useful modules. But maybe, it would be interesting to display all modules : actually modules are filtered with "status = 1" in SQL request. I could add an option to enable/or not this option in module back-end.

@hsatish hum, interesting question... :-)
- MENU_CALLBACK : Callbacks simply register a path so that the correct function is fired when the URL is accessed. They are not shown in the menu.
- MENU_NORMAL_ITEM : Normal menu items show up in the menu tree and can be moved/hidden by the administrator. Use this for most menu items. It is the default value if no menu item type is specified.

I have tested the module.Its working fine and showing either active modules or all the modules.But i think feature request is to also show non-enabled modules alone.

thanks @Narno
i just asked which option for menu item of non-enabled modules page is better!
I added a small tweak to the module.Interested guys can check it at http://hsatish.net/?q=node/6.
thanks again Narno

About the displaying of disabled modules, I have a doubt about the interest because this is not the objective of the module named used modules, you see? Why display just the disabled modules? If you want to know witch modules are disabled to properly uninstall it, I think the best way is to use the Plugin Manager module, no?
I'm agree with you, I think it's a better default configuration for the page menu.
And more, your tweak about sorting is interesting, can I used your code?
Thx
