I've just checked out your code Jean-Marc with
cvs update
I've just compiled the code without any problem. However, running it I get the
message
Menubar::Pimpl::set: menubackend is empty! using default values.
With or without a document loaded there are only 3 items in the menubar, File,
Edit and Documents
Looking in lib/ I see that there is no ui/ directory so typing
cvs update -d
causes a new file to be uploaded
lib/scripts/fen2latex.py
but then the update terminates with
cvs [update aborted]: cannot open CVS/Entries.Log: No such file or directory
Repeating
cvs update -d
gives
cvs update: in directory lib/scripts:
cvs update: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs server: Updating lib/scripts
cvs update: move away lib/scripts/fen2latex.py; it is in the way
C lib/scripts/fen2latex.py
cvs update: move away lib/scripts/fig2pstex.py; it is in the way
C lib/scripts/fig2pstex.py
cvs update: move away lib/scripts/general_command_wrapper.py; it is in the way
C lib/scripts/general_command_wrapper.py
U lib/scripts/pic2ascii.py
cvs [update aborted]: cannot open CVS/Entries.Log: No such file or directory
Finally I typed
cvs update -d lib/ui
This worked! However, I now worried that I'm missing something!

JMarc> OK, I have finally commited my work from this week end. A few random
notes:
JMarc> - Toolbar and menubar are in frontends, with implementation in
JMarc> frontends/xforms. The external interface is GUI-indep. There may be
JMarc> a way to use signals between the interface and the private
JMarc> implementation, but I do not know how.
JMarc> - To see the new menubar at work, define NEW_MENUBAR in LyXView.C and
JMarc> recompile.
JMarc> - most of the menus work, except for Edit->Float, Edit->Table and a
JMarc> few others for which I do not have lyxfuncs. I did not port Dekel's
JMarc> TOC menu code either (Dekel, could you have a look in
JMarc> frontends/xforms/Menubar_pimpl.C and see if you can do it?).
JMarc> - the menus and toolbar are defined in lib/ui/default.ui (actually the
JMarc> name can be changed via lyxrc.ui_file). The toolbar is as before but
JMarc> with different tokens (why the hell do we need the backslashes?).
JMarc> For the menus... well, take a look and ask me if it is not clear.
JMarc> - There are still a couple of drawing problems. In particular, in some
JMarc> situations, the shortcuts disappear from the menu bar unless you
JMarc> move the mouse over it.
JMarc> - The shortcuts in menus are not aligned correctly. I have to look in
JMarc> xforms code to see how it handles \t.
JMarc> JMarc
