Hi all, Just a quick question, if anyone knows. In trying to track down how Mathematica internally handles format->face->bold menu command, I found the following line in MenuSetup.tr: MenuItem["&Bold", FontWeight -> Toggle, MenuKey["b", Modifiers- >{"Control"}],MenuEvaluator->Automatic] Now, I wanted to mimic this with a SetOptions[**something**, FontWeight -> Toggle ] command, but I've no idea what "**something** should be? Does this one have an easy answer? And is there a general way to convert MenuSetup.tr lines into commands I can send to the kernel? I know that the ones in "quotes" are front end tokens, so I'm all set for those. Thanks so much to whoever reads this! --Alex
