If you look at my .twmrc stuff on my webpage, you'll find that I generate
the menus using a Perl preprocessor from a big giant hash.  If one had
experience with Perl (maybe with Tk or some other graphics library
combined with it?), it shouldn't be too hard to write a frontend for
writing the big hash that generates the menus.
