Just a word of caution.  A friend of mine and myself tried the MFMenu INIT a
few weeks back and noticed that it caused a few system crashes which didn't
occur before we installed MFMenu.  Its been a while, so I forgot the
details, but we both concluded (independently of each other) the MFMenu was
the culprit after using it for a few days.

We both were on Mac II's, so it could be just a case of Mac II
incompatability.
