The script only needs to go into the Edit menu as that is where
Revolution thinks the Preferences menu item is.
My usual mistake is checking for "Preferences..." when it's really
"Preferences" (without the ellipsis or 3 dots) or vice versa.

Put a debugging line in the Edit menus script to check that it is
being called and to see what it's parameter is, and work from there.

Cheers,
