Re: [pygame] wx Menu

["Brian Fisher" <brian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm pretty sure there's no way you can use wxPython to add a menu bar
to a pygame window. You could probably figure out some platform
specific solutions for getting a menu bar (maybe using ctypes and
getting at the SDL window handle), but I don't think a cross-platform
solution exists.
