Re:New menu creation

[supreet prasad]

Hello David,

Thanks for taking your time and helping me out here. I really appreciate it.
I was able to create menus.

I now need to know the name of the file in use and find out if a particular file exists in some location and do some stuff accordingly.
How do I proceed?

Thanks,
Supreet

Hello Emacs Developers,

I am very new to Emacs development. I am now trying to develop my own
menu and I had a few questions about it.

Do I start of writing my code in a new .el file under "lisp" directory?

Add code to .emacs file.

Do I have to compile emacs and install it everytime I make some changes
and want to test it?

No, emacs can source both *.el or *.elc(compiled). Prefer later.

I need to create a new menu item and perform a couple of simple tasks.
Please let me know how I can proceed .

Use "easy-menu-define".

Any links or suggestions would be extremely helpful.

Thanks,
Supreet
