Description
A guimenuitem
identifies a terminal selection
from a menu in a graphical user interface. In particular, this is
distinct from a menu (guimenu
) and a submenu
(guisubmenu
). The distinction between a
guimenuitem
and a guisubmenu
is
simply whether or not the selection is terminal or leads to an
additional submenu.
