;;; This is compatible with easymenu.el by Per Abrahamsen
;;; but it is much simpler as it doesn't try to support other Emacs versions.
;;; The code was mostly derived from lmenu.el.

;;; Code:

;;;###autoload.
(defun easy-menu-define (symbol maps doc menu)
  "Define a menu bar submenu in maps MAPS, according to MENU.
The arguments SYMBOL and DOC are ignored; they are present for
compatibility only.

The first element of MENU must be a string.  It is the menu bar item name.
The rest of the elements are menu items.

A menu item is a vector of three elements:

 - the name of the menu item (a string);
 - the `callback' of that item;
 - t.

If the `callback' of a menu item is a symbol, then it must name a
command.  It will be invoked with `call-interactively'.  If it is a
list, then it is evaluated with `eval'.

If an element of a menu is a string, then that string appears in the
menu as unselectable text.

If an element of a menu is a string consisting solely of hyphens, then that
item is displayed as a solid horizontal line.

If an element of a menu is a list, it is treated as a submenu.
The first element should be the submenu name.  That's used as the
menu item in the top-level menu.  The cdr of the submenu list
is a list of menu items, as above."
