 Hi,'
'
   I''m having some problems manipulating menus, possibly'
   a bug in the ADDMENU and DELETEMENU function.'
'
   If one had a menu in which ITEMS is a list with a value'
   to be returned when selected field, '
'
   eg. ITEMS <- ''((YES ''YES) (NO ''NO))'
'
   then if one added and deleted the menu,'
   '
   eg. (PROGN (ADDMENU <menu> <window> <pos>)'
              (DELETEMENU <menu> <closeflg> <fromwindow>)'
              (MENU <menu>))'
       will return a process number.'
'
   subsequent calls to the menu using (MENU <menu>) would '
   return some process number when an item of the menu is'
   selected, is this intentional or a bug?  If it is'
   intentional, are there ways to preserve the meaning of'
   MENU so that it always returns the value to be returned'
   when selected?'
