I have to say I disagree, since it is more work to change the menus after they are defined, and it means requiring easymenu in the dumped ns Emacs; and this means putting it in the DOC file for every platform. I also find it much easier to see all the menu definitions at one place rather than have them scattered over multiple files. >> 7.
