Hi Allen,

I have been working on a Menu Broker movie script which extends the menu
management provided by Lingo.  In particular, you can:

* Define a number of menu bars (from a field definition or a list)
* Swap one menu bar for another
* Add new menu items within a given menu (e.g. recently used files)
* Set a checkmark for one item in a group (between separators),
  while removing the checkmark for all other items in that group
* Enable and disable a set of menu items, which need not all be in
  the same menu, with one command plus a property list parameter.
* ...

Is this the sort of thing you are looking for?  What other menu-control
features would you find useful?

Cheers,

James
