I'm using hamm so this one is out. wmaker 0.14.1 | * Use the hooks... | | $ grep hook /etc/X11/WindowMaker/menu.hook | #include <menu.prehook> | #include <menu.posthook> | | Put a menu.posthook and menu.prehook in ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker These don't seem to apply to the WindowMaker installation under hamm.

I haven't tried it system wide, like above, because I want to do it on a per-user basis. I think there's something about update-menus that doesn't function properly for WindowMaker under hamm. I'm loathe to upgrade to slink but maybe I'll just put this desire off until I have time to do that upgrade. Or maybe I'll just copy menu.hook from /etc and do it manually until I can upgrade to slink. Thanks for all the responses! Gary
