Menu items may be either normal items, check items or radio items. Normal items
don't have any special properties while the check items have a boolean flag
associated to them and they show a checkmark in the menu when the flag is set.

as your EVT\_MENU entries, events from the toolbar will also be processed by your
EVT\_MENU event handlers.
-Note that menu commands (and UI update events for menus) are first sent to
-the focus window within the frame. If no window within the frame has the focus,
-then the events are sent directly to the frame. This allows command and UI update
-handling to be processed by specific windows and controls, and not necessarily
-by the application frame.
-
{\bf Tip:} under Windows, if you discover that menu shortcuts (for example, Alt-F to show the file menu)
are not working, check any EVT\_CHAR events you are handling in child windows.
If you are not calling {\tt event.Skip()} for events that you don't process in these event handlers,
