3165.0. "Setting up MENUS from COM file??" by HPSRAD::ARTHUR (You're rendering that scaffolding dangerous!) Thu Aug 02 1990 17:31

I'm the   developer   for  an  "internal  only"  product  which  runs  under
DECwindows.  I'm  wondering  if  I  can  get  my KITINSTAL.COM to set up the
applications  menu definitions and set up the autostart for the user account
which gets created during the install.

Is this possible, and if so how?

Thanks,
Ed

    Since the interface or format for the session manager menus is an
    unpublished one, any action on the part of KITINSTAL.COM to modify
    the menus would be unsupported and probably render the session manager
    menus unusable in some future version of DECwindows or Motif.
    
    Having said that, maybe someone knows how to do it anyway...

    You can however, add yourself to the fileview menus. See the Using
    DECwindows book for the documentation on this. DECwrite, DECchart,
    DECdecision and a few other apps do this.
