biut that method can be written:
aMenu addGroup: (MenuGroupModel new
addItem: (MenuItemModel new
name: 'Browse Full';
action: [ self browseSelectedObject ];
shortcut: $b command mac | $b alt win | $b alt unix);
addItem: (MenuItem new
name: 'Browse Class';
action: [ self browseSelectedObjectClass ])).
and you do not have to declare variables for that (and is a lot better than
using a block, IMO).
