[Iup-users] Dynamically modified menus

[Merick]

hmm... I already made a reply to this, but when I just checked it it 
seems that the reply went straight to the op instead of to the list....

Anyway, I haven't tried this (no need to yet) but my idea for a solution 
to this is to create several different menus, put them in frames inside 
a zbox, then bring the correct menu to the top of the zbox when loading 
the document
