Alter Menu
You can use this module to incorporate your own scripts or
restrict accessibility to specific Enlighten menu items
by providing a user-alterable interface. The following items
may be altered:
+ The order of menu icons
+ The order of menu items
+ The actions of menu items
+ The number of icons and menu items
The Enlighten graphical user interface is built from a small
text database (file) containing objects and attribute lists. This
file contains information describing the layout of the windows. By
editing this file, you can create alternate interfaces. For example,
you may wish to add a menu item with your own script as the action
item. When you select the Alter Menu menu item, a window will
appear showing the text database. You can edit the object and
attribute lists within this as you need. See "ALTERING THE MENU"
on page B-1 in the Reference Manual for more details on using this
option.
