I would like to get a somewhat official ruling on the use of the Edit
menu in my cdev. There are three issues that I am confronting:

1. Am I allowed to disable or enable menu items in the Edit menu (assuming
I change them back to their original state)?

2. Am I allowed to use the MenuKey function, and if so, do I have any
Apple guarantee of what menu ID and item numbers are the Edit menu ones?

3. What can I do if I want the F1-F4 keys to perform their undo, copy,
cut, and paste functions?

A reasonable answer to any of these questions is that I should replace
the menu bar with my own and put it back when I'm deactivated.

On a similar topic: Does anyone know wheter there are any official menu
ID's (not resource numbers, ID's) that I should use in the cdev for
pop-up menus I have? I can't find any documentation on any of these.

Thanks.
