This still seems way too complicated. Why execute a bunch of separate statements when what you're trying to set up is a single structure?
E.g.:
menu = dabo.ui.Menu(("Close Window, self.onCloseWindow), ("New Window", self.NewWindow), ("Print", self.Print))
Obviously, something like that could also be added - do you want to help develop Dabo? We're always looking for talented people with good ideas!
I should also mention that there is a class that creates a base menubar, with the typical menus that nearly all apps use. I needed to add to an existing menu; hence the call to menu.append().
Since Dabo is now a two-person effort, we develop as we need things. I am working on the UI Designer, and needed to make menu entries. Up until now, we've coded them the wx-way, but I wanted to remove that wxPython dependency, so I took a detour from the UI Designer to create the menu classes. That's pretty much the pattern: things get written as they are needed.
