The file named menu is the menu in the plain text file format. The files
named menu.?? (?? are 2 characters, such as pt) are translations of the
same menu. Plain text menus are preprocessed using cpp (the C Pre-Processor),
so you can use cpp macros in it.
The plmenu file is the same menu, but in the property list format.
This menu can be edited with WPrefs.app, but since WPrefs.app does not
support XIM, it will not allow you to make menus in languages such as
Japanese.
To use the menu in the property list format (plmenu), just replace the
~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu with it. To use the plain text menu,
place the path for the menu in ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu, enclosed
in double quotes ("). Ex: "~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/menu"
Instructions for editing the plain text menus can be found in the menu
file itself, kindly translated to your tongue for your convenience, by
the translation contributors.
There is a script to convert plain text menus to property list menus
in the utils directory, named wm-oldmenu2new.
If you are unsure to wich format to use, stick with the plain text menus
as they are more flexible. If for some psychological reason you are
scared by text based configuration, use the property list menu.
