I am writing an X-toolkit application and would like to be able to
provide menus (be they popup or pull-down).

I have tried using the MenuBox widget supplied in contrib, but it
(even with the supplied menutest program) core dumps on several of our
machines (including an HP835 running HPUX 3.1, and a Pyramid running
OSx 4.0).

Does anyone out there know of fix(es) for it, or better still know the
whereabouts of a better widget?  Something with support for
hierachical menus (as in awm & twm) would be wonderful.

Thanks,
