OS/2 and Windows *can* do it *exactly* the way MacOS does it. If you click a menu and hold down the button, then when you release the button the menu will disappear. If you release the button while over a menu entry, you will choose that menu entry. Or you can do the other thing - click the menu and let it hang around while you make your selection. -- Bill Moyer <ttk@rahul.net>
