  *   Menu1.enabled     = true | false
  *   ...
  * mnemonic is a single character
  * accelerator is of the form described in {@link javax.swing.KeyStroke#getKeyStroke(String)}.
  * '-' represents a separator
  * </pre>
  * All entries are optional except the '.type' entry
  * Consecutive RADIO items are put in a ButtonGroup
