2 minor issues:

- AppKit.h already includes Foundation.h
- ObjC headers should be #imported, not #included

It's 'only'

@implementation MyDelegate

Method names start with a lowercase character:

menu = AUTORELEASE ([NSMenu new]); 

BTW the method 'new' does actually alloc/init using the designated initialiser 
- it is a 'deprecated' method (NeXT wanted to remove it switching from NS 2.x 
to 3.0, but at the end they did not because of legacy stuff ), so it is better 
to use alloc/init directly.

Hope this helps,
