Yeah.  MENUTOGGLE may well be documented in the errata pages, but unless
what i wrote didn't transfer well to the printed page, it was documented
as NOT being operational in 1.1.   This should clear up your confusion
considerably.  The fate of this feature is somewhat in doubt right now,
for 1.X, but we'll be sure the documentation matches the truth in the
future.

In the absence of this feature, some people have been modifying their menus
after such an item has been selected (don't use CHECKIT) so the item
will once read "Thingme On" and next read "Thingme Off."

MENUTOGGLE gets a little confusing in context with multiple (drag) selection.

Write if you want more followup.
