The [tklib] library contains a '''menubar ''' package that implements a menubar class. This class can be used to create an manage menubars
in toplevel windows. The class doesn't depend on a widget framework and therefore can be used with or without a framework (e.g. Bwidget, IWidget, Snit, etc.). Some of the features of this package are:

   * A tagging system that simplifies access to menu entries in the menu tree.
   * Support for user defined tags that depend on the toplevel window context.
   * A simplified and uniform interface for all callback commands.
   * Namespace support for all callback commands so callback commands can be easily grouped into namespaces.
   * Support for hiding and exposing menus on the menubar.
   * A simplified method for creating radiobutton groups.
   * Automatic management of state variables for checkbuttons and radiobuttons.
   * Scope control for the state variables of checkbuttons and radiobuttons.
   * Tearoff menu management that ensures only one tearoff menu is created.
   * Support for dynamic menu extension to simplify the creation of recent document menus.
   * Support for saving and restoring dynamic menu extensions.

The package is written in pure Tcl/Tk but it uses TclOO so 8.6 or greater is suggested.
