SYNOPSIS

WA2LWinTools/bin/StartMenu [ -h | -i | -u | -V ]

 

AVAILABILITY

DESCRIPTION

start menu with all WA2L/WinTools utilities that sits in the Windows™ system tray.

The menu contains the same entries as created in the Windows™ 'Start' menu when the [x] Create start menu entries option in the dialog of config(1m) is chosen.

The startmenu(1) can be used if it is not desired to use classicstartmenu(1m) but nevertheless have a structured menu of all utilities of the WA2L/WinTools package available.

Beside the WA2L/WinTools start menu, the entries of the Windows™ 'Startup' menu and (if installed right beside the WA2L/WinTools package) the menu entries of the WA2L/SimpleBackup package are provided also as menus.

You should not add own entries to this menu because your entries will be lost on next start; for an own portable start menu use pstart(1).
