+// "$Id$"
+//
+// An example of using Fl_Menu_Bar's add() to dynamically create menubars
+//
+//	Menu bars can be created several ways. Using add() allows
+//	dynamically creating a menubar using a 'pathname' syntax.
+//	Use if you're creating items dynamically, or if you're making 
+//	menubars by hand (as opposed to using fluid), as it's easier
+//	to type and read. 
+//
+//	In this case we're using one callback for all items, 
+//	but you can make unique callbacks for each item if needed.
