GoFish5 has a menu outliner feature if you have a MNX selected in the file 
list. It is on the "toolbar" above the search
results list. Check out the icon that looks like a dropdown menu.

Subject: looking docs or code for reading and exporting vfp menus that I can 
understand

I've inherited a couple of fairly large VFP apps and I have been trying to read 
the menu files and build some
documentation automatically. I am more or less wanting to process a mnx file to 
build either a tree-view type document
or just a plain text list that includes how to get to the menu item and what 
command it runs. I have looked at the code
for genmenu, genmenux, the oop menu project on vfpx, as well as a few snippets 
I found online but I am still very
confused on what the records and fields mean. I didn't think I was too bad of a 
FoxPro programmer but trying to trace
the code in genmenu makes me feel pretty dumb honestly. I can get at the prompt 
and the command  it runs without too
much issue but I am struggling trying to document the hierarchy (from the main 
menu to an option on a submenu or
sub-submenu. Could anyone point me to some documentation for foxpro menu 
tables, or some fairly simple code I could read
to try and wrap my head around how it works? Thanks!
