Do we really need to mix everything into one command? I think we need: AddToMenu - don't touch it, for backward compatibility only AddMenuStyle menu_name - a new command, allows "+" AddMenuItems menu_name - a new command, allows "+" But I prefer to think about a new design in depth before saying anything more. There are so many small issues to solve. Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
