Description

GUIMenuItem identifies a terminal selection from a menu in a graphical user interface. In particular, this is distinct from a menu (GUIMenu) and a submenu (GUISubmenu). The distinction between a GUIMenuItem and a GUISubmenu is simply whether or not the selection is terminal or leads to an additional submenu.
