Subject: [APBeta] Windows menus

Windows-using folks,

What's the desired functionality for the menus in a window?

a. Every window has all the menus with all menu entries, and just  
disables those that don't apply to the window (this is the current  
method).

b. A window only has those menus that contain entries pertinent to the  
window, but those menus contain all the items, with the unused ones  
dimmed.

c. A window only has those menus that contain entries pertinent to the  
window, and only containing items pertinent to the window. e.g. for a  
simple window, the File menu might only contain the "Close" item.

I'm trying to figure out how typical Windows apps behave.

Paul R.
