Hi Pete,
yes, but only with an external.
Trevor Devore created such an external.
It supports the following handlers/messages
--
HANDLERS
command CreateStatusMenu - generates the menu in the menubar.
param 1: Name of the menu.
param 2: A cr delimited list of menu items. Each line contains a menu item name.
param 3: The tooltip that shows up if you hover your mouse over the menu icon.
command SetCheckedState - set the checked state of a menu item.
param 1: the menu item name
param 2: true/false
command SetStatusMenuKeyEquivalent - specify the shortcut key that appears alongside a menu item. This won't actually do anything other than provide a visual. I use it for some global hotkeys that my app registers.
param 1: The menu item name
param 2: The key equivalent (e.g. 2 or A)
param 3: true/false for command key
param 4: true/false for shift key
param 5: true/false for option key
param 6: true/false for control key
command DeleteStatusMenu - call when your app quits or you want to otherwise remove the status menu.
MESSAGES
StatusMenuSelect - sent when the user makes a selection from the menu.
param 1: The name of the menu item selected.

Maybe you ask him, if he is willing to share it with you.
But i am pretty sure, he will do.
I asked also and got it some months ago.
Regards,
Matthias
