unicode menus

[ron barber]

Thank you Tuviah for your response. You have done some good things with 
unicode thus far which is why its so frustrating when it doesn't seem 
to work as advertised. It's usually something that I'm doing wrong 
rather than Rev., but it sure is frustrating in the meantime.

Thank you, I will try this method tonight or tomorrow.

So the name of the first menu doesn't matter?

I have the labels set in Japanese. The names like "Edit" are in 
english. The Edit menu consistently turns into junk chars.

Typing a tab and unicode text into the property inspector seems to 
shift the text so that it changes into junk chars. after the tab.

Tabs can be added in the menu builder, but when the menu is actually 
used in the menubar, the junk chars show up all on one line after the 
tab. Also, if two cascading menu items are included, only the first one 
shows up.
