for menu in TSE?

Possibly give your menu names a fixed structure.

---

e.g.

Alway first a verb, followed always by a noun, followed by something 
else.

thus

<verb><noun><something else>

e.g.

MENU CopyBlock...()

MENU SearchText....()

MENU CopyString...()

...

Steps: Overview:

 1. -Create lists (or better comboboxes) to choose from:
