Hi, in the course of preparing a lecture about AUCTeX, I am also going through the menus. Now making screenshots (which are necessarily of low quality) of the menus is not too nice, and when making diagrams with one menu and its submenus connected by arrows, things get ugly.
It would be nicer to just produce the LaTeX source directly by scanning through the menus within Emacs and writing out appropriate code. Doing stuff like that could also form the base for some Javascript demos of Emacs menu structures. Whatever. Looking through the keymaps manually showed that a lot of cruft and precalculated functions and stuff collect there. Would there be some reasonably easy way to walk the menus and just get the names, separators, keyboard shortcuts and submenus out? This could be extended at some point of time to burp out a Texinfo template for explaining as well as printing a menu hierarchy for the use in manuals, too. But at the moment I am just interested in getting to separate the wheat from the chaff in active menu keymaps. What one can later make from it is another question.
