Easiest fix ever, I'm just sorry that none of my searches for the documentation got me there. Thanks.
I couldn't find it either, which prompted me to write this in the thread named "OSX Menu Mystery":
----------------------------------------------
Here's the deal:
In Mac Classic, Windows, and most Linux window managers the "Preferences..." item is the last item in the Edit menu by convention, while OS X uniquely places this under the application menu.
For the convenience of the developer, if you make your menus HIG-compliant for 98& of the world by putting an item named "Preferences..." as the last item in your Edit menu under a divider, when running in OS X the divider is removed and the item is automagically moved to the application menu.
The "About..." item works similarly: 96% of the world places this as the last item in the Help menu, but Mac Classic puts it under the apple menu and OS X puts it under the application menu. As with "Preferences...", making the last two items of your Help menu a divider followed by "About..." will take care of most platforms and the engine will automagically move them to the appropriate places for Classic and OS X.
"Quit" works pretty much the same too: if you make the last two items of your File menu a divider followed by "Quit", the engine will move the item to the application menu for you in OS X.
It may seem odd at first, but having spent many hours in meetings with the SuperCard team many years ago when they were still planning a Windows version, I must say that Scott Raney's solution -- once grokked -- is a wonder of simplicity and automation for HIG-compliant apps.
