Class PopupMenu

java.lang.Object
  PopupMenu

final class PopupMenu
extends Object

A pop-up menu for control of in-page tools.

Pop it context-aware by mouse (Ctrl-anyButton).

Pop it context-free by mouse (anyButton) in the toolbar applet. For silent pages, this is the only way to pop the menu.

Pop it context-free by keystroke (Ctrl-T). [Maybe context-aware later, if we track browser's on-screen cursor.] Child menu-items will usually have mnemonics, making them invokable by additional keystrokes.

Mouse and key bindings are hard-coded. [Will later be configurable, per a/z : general end-user config framework.]
