suggestion for emacs improvement

[The Directory]

hello:

i've just started using emacs, and one thing that i find particularly difficult with the GUI is that there is not syntax selection pull down menu.  In VIM, I could choose syntax editing and highlighting through a variety of languages through clicking on the pull-down menu and selecting the programming language that I desire.  I'm sure that having a pull-down programming-language-selection menu tab would make emacs much easier and accessible to newtime users.

thanks
please reply

Why would you need this?  The syntax should be automatically selected
depending on the file extensione.
