It's much to complicate. agred there. its too long and needs a refactor. if someone wants to refactor it and make it a bit better organised - maybe make commonly used items in he main and put the rest of the details in submenus - please do. otherwise i'll leave it until later to do that. > Some menu entries are not so often used.
