Many other menu items will appear only in certain context, so you always have items (dis)appear within a menu (and not only at the bottom). > A couple other questions/comments: > Your commit 8f86feb prepends "Insert" to context menus.

A > search for "insert" and "frame" did not reveal them to me. environment-split, "environment-split outer", "environment-split before", and "environment-split-previous" You can assign shortcuts to them. Note that there are already bindings for either environment-split or environment-split previous (Alt+Return) , depending on which one is currently active, as well as "environment- split outer" (Alt+Shift+Return). Only the latter is indicated in the menu. This is due to the fact that the former is defined via command- alternatives, and the code that builds the strings for display cannot yet deal with that (the fix is beyond my knowledge). > Thanks, > Joel > > P.S.
