1) How do you define a new menu style - do you just copy one of the
existing menu styles into a new one with, say:

"CopyMenuStyle fvwm my_style"


This line only makes sence after these lines:

  CopyMenuStyle * fvwm    # actually optional, but you probably want it
  MenuStyle fvwm Font fixed, AnyOtherOptions YouWant

So actually instead of "Sets a new menu style or changes a previously defined style." in a definition of a MenuStyle command the man page is supposed to say: "Defines a new menu style or changes a previously defined one." - in effect it also answers to the next question.

creating that new style along the way and than change some of it's
properties? (Of course if the answer to previous question is that
there is only one changeable style - "*", the question is irrelevant,
though an existence of CopyMenuStyle suggests that many menu styles
can be defined)


You may use ChangeMenuStyle command to associate menus created using Menu
command with a menu style different than the default "*". This command is
documented in the man page:

ChangeMenuStyle my_style MenuFvwmRoot MenuFvwmWindowOperations

And is it possible to change style of all menus at once? For example, if i have 100 menus (including those defined by AddToMenu command and the built-in ones) and i want all of them to use my_fvwm style, i don't want to enumerate all of them in ChangeMenuStyle, like:

ChangeMenuStyle my_style menu1, menu2, menu3 .... menu99 menu100

but i want say something short instead that will do the job, like:

ChangeMenuStyle my_style ALL_EXISTING_MENUS

How can i do that?
