 Do you know the list of elements before you create the option menu?
 
 If so, you can do something like this:
 
 # suppose aElements is the list of elements, and var1 is a StringVar.
 oOption = OptionMenu(oRoot, var1, aElements[0], *aElements[1:])
 
 If you want to create the OptionMenu first, and then later set the list of
 elements ... then it is a bit more difficult.
