I think that we should consider adding a few more sub-menues to the Options menu to make more of the built-in functionality of emacs directly selectable: More Display Options -> Reveal Mode Show Trailing Whitespace Blinking Cursor Display Image Files Glasses mode Highlight current line Resize Minibuffer Mode More Editing Options -> Auto-Expand Abbreviations Auto-Revert files (when changed outside emacs) Auto-Save files C warning Mode Refill Mode Write using mouse (Strokes mode) More Environment Options -> Interactive Buffer Switching Incremental completion mode Mouse avoidance mode -> [option list] Mouse wheel support CUA mode VIPER mode Delete Selection mode PC selection mode Remember Recently Edited files Undoable window changes (winner mode) Also on Show/Hide, add Battery indicator Ruler Current function name (Which Function mode) On the edit menu, add Overwrite Mode Artist Mode Picture Mode
