The User Menu: User Commands and Xic Scripts

The User Menu contains two built-in commands. Other buttons which appear execute user-generated scripts, or pop up menus of user-generated scripts. An entry will appear for each script found along the script search path. The built-in commands are summarized in the table below.

The User Menu supports a mechanism for creating submenus, which contain buttons that launch other scripts or sub-submenus. This can be useful for organizing the user's scripts into categories.
