This just creates the menubar with the pull-down menus for the File and Edit menus. That much I know. But I am trying to creating submenus of the pull-down menus, and nothing I have tried works. For example, like in a View menu, suppose I want a menu item labelled "Toolbars" that brings up a menu with various toolabrs in it. I have Emmanuele Bassi's recent-uimanager code and I am trying to use that as a guide, but it seems absurd to have to go down so far as to create GObjects just to do this.
