Perhaps I got that all wrong.
In playing with a test conversion yesterday I
did run into a DoMenu script not working. Rev
instructions do say DoMenu commands won't
work. Is there a work a round for the DoMenu
thingie? Here is one example I'd like to keep
the

Dale, in most cases, you can replace doMenu with menuPick. I
would move the deMenu/menuPick handlers to either the menu buttons or
the menu groups.

Kay C,
Galaxy Message Box now accepts s and c so that a user can quickly
edit the script of the default stack or its current card from the
message box. This was an old HyperCard convention we forgot to

In the Transcript Dictionary, there is an entry for 'doMenu' which executes menu
commands - something I'd like to do. However there is a caveat: The doMenu command is
not implemented for all menu items. What does this mean? How does the engine know
which items are being called for, anyway
in Transcript, but you get the idea.
