Given an application (or applet) that constructs a Frame instance and sets up a "File" menu, create a "Help" menu that uses MenuItem objects.

Skeleton Code

Tasks


  1. Create class HelpMenu as a subclass of Menu (mimic FileMenu). Add the following menu items:

        Fundamentals
        Advanced
        - (a separator)
        Have Read The Manual    (CheckboxMenuItem)
        Have Read The Tutorial  (CheckboxMenuItem)
        Misc (submenu)
    

    where the Misc submenu has:

        Help!!!
        Why did that happen?
    

  2. Define the actionPerformed() so that menu item selections are displayed in the supplied text area (mimic the FileMenu).

Where help exists, the task numbers above are linked to the step-by-step help page.
