* This class serves as a good example for how items are added to a menu, and * how an item's "action listener" is given a simple prototype implementation. *

* As explained in the Java Swing Tutorial, an action listener is implemented * in a method named "actionPerformed". This method is specialized for all * clickable GUI components, such as menu items and buttons. In a complete * implementation, action listeners perform actual computations, by calling * methods in companion computational classes. *

* In a GUI prototype, action listeners don't do any real work. Instead, they * do one of two things: *

  1. * print a simple message to stdout, to indicate that a menu item or button has * been clicked on *
  2. * bring up another prototype GUI, such as a dialog or display window *
*

* In the full implementation next quarter in 309, these simple prototype * actions will be replaced by calls to methods that do real work. * */ public class FileMenu extends JMenu { /** * Construct this by inserting each of its nine menu items into the * pulldown menu.
