Menu bar

A menu bar is a standard user interface which places the main commands of an application along the top of one or more frames.

The menu bar must be assigned to a frame using frame-set-menu-bar. Once this is done, the menu bar must not be deleted by the application: it will be deleted when the frame is deleted.

A menu or menu bar string may contain an ampersand, which is taken to mean 'underline the next character and use it as the hotkey'. This gives the user the opportunity to use keystrokes to access menus and items.
