Getting windows over the menu bar

I'm trying to write an application that does not have menus.  It's a game,
and it doesn't need menus.  No user interface flames please.  Anyway, I
can't get rid of the menu bar.  It's easy to paint gray over it, but the
Window Manager thinks it's still there and refuses to put a window on top of
it.  I tried changing grayRgn before calling InitWindows, which a small note
in the WM manual says will change the area filled with deskPattern, but
nothing happened.  Does anyone know how to get the Window Manager to use the
entire screen?  Please mail to me and I'll post useful responses.
