The way the command key code is usually written, if the program will
support ANY command key, it will support them all, and you can add what you
want with the resource editor (assuming the menus are in resources, of
course). If the program doesn't support any command keys, then chances are
that the code isn't there and even if you do add them to the menu's they'll
be ignored. That is a silly thing to do, since the code involved is rather
trivial...
