/* This is the GtkItemFactoryEntry structure used to generate new menus.
   Item 1: The menu path. The letter after the underscore indicates an
           accelerator key once the menu is open.
   Item 2: The accelerator key for the entry
   Item 3: The callback function.
   Item 4: The callback action.  This changes the parameters with
           which the function is called.  The default is 0.
   Item 5: The item type, used to define what kind of an item it is.
           Here are the possible values:

           NULL               -> "<Item>"
           ""                 -> "<Item>"
           "<Title>"          -> create a title item
           "<Item>"           -> create a simple item
           "<CheckItem>"      -> create a check item
           "<ToggleItem>"     -> create a toggle item
           "<RadioItem>"      -> create a radio item
           <path>             -> path of a radio item to link against
           "<Separator>"      -> create a separator
           "<Branch>"         -> create an item to hold sub items (optional)
           "<LastBranch>"     -> create a right justified branch
