You know I could _swear_ I'd seen a python API for talking to Aqua's menu

Apple forums are notoriously unhelpful, but you may well find some developers
who will talk about this, and a lot of apple devel's are pythonauts too.

I've had first-hand experience with the unhelpfulness of Apple site forums, but I guess it's worth a try. (sigh) I was hoping there would be standard menu-option stuff in PyGame itself.

I looked around the PyObjc site, and I'm pretty sure I could add menu
items through it, since it seems to be a bridge to Cocoa stuff -- but
that's completely uncharted territory for me.

Selecting the "Quit" item under my app's menu causes my checkers
program to spit the following error out to my terminal:

2007-02-10 11:20:10.197 python[9898] could not find associated NSMenu
for -20213 (item:9)

So it would seem that PyObjc is already being used in some way since
the menu command reached python, and I never did anything to add the
menu item myself.
