Remove Graphical Menu in emacs 21?

Remove Graphical Menu in emacs 21?

[Arno Wagner]

Hi,

being a victim of a forced upgrade to emacs 21 under Debian, I now have
this second menu bar on the top that is all pictures. This thing has
zero value for me and is eating my screenspace, which annoys me no
end. Browsing the FAQ and manual, I failed to find a way to turn it
off. Can somebody tell me how or at least give me a pointer on where
to look for the relevant documentation? Thanks!

I have the following in my ~/.Xresources for this:

,----[ ~/.Xresources ]
|    Emacs.menuBar: off
|    Emacs.toolBar: off
`----

The already mentioned (tool-bar-mode -1) works as well of course.

Don't forget (scroll-bar-mode -1), it's also space saving.

Its the toolbar - the very first thing I disabled when moving to emacs 21. 

There are a number of ways to disable it

1. In your .Xresources i.e. Emacs.toolBar: 0
2. put (tool-bar-mode -1) in your .emacs
3. Use customize to disable the mode

,----[ C-h f tool-bar-mode RET ]
| tool-bar-mode is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `tool-bar.el'.
| It is bound to  <menu-bar> <options> <showhide> <showhide-tool-bar> .
| (tool-bar-mode &optional arg)
| 
| Toggle use of the tool bar.
| With numeric arg, display the tool bar if and only if arg is positive.
| 
| See `tool-bar-add-item' and `tool-bar-add-item-from-menu' for
| conveniently adding tool bar items.
