SYNOPSIS
           use Curses::UI;
           my $cui = new Curses::UI;

           # define the menu datastructure.
           my $menu_data = [....];

           my $menu = $cui->add(
               'menu', 'Menubar',
               -menu => $menu_data
           );

           $menu->focus();

DESCRIPTION
       This class can be used to add a menubar to Curses::UI. This menubar can contain a complete
       submenu hierarchy. It looks (remotely :-) like this:

        -------------------------------------
        menu1 | menu2 | menu3 | ....
        -------------------------------------
              +-------------+
              |menuitem 1   |
              |menuitem 2   |+--------------+
              |menuitem 3 >>||submenuitem 1 |
              |menuitem 4   ||submenuitem 2 |
              +-------------+|submenuitem 3 |
                             |submenuitem 4 |
                             |submenuitem 5 |
                             +--------------+

       See exampes/demo-Curses::UI::Menubar in the distribution for a short demo.

STANDARD OPTIONS
       This class does not use any of the standard options that are provided by
       Curses::UI::Widget.

WIDGET-SPECIFIC OPTIONS
       There is only one option: -menu. The value for this option is an ARRAYREF. This ARRAYREF
       behaves exactly like the one that is described in Curses::UI::MenuListbox.  The difference
       is that for the top-level menu, you will only use -submenu's. Example data structure:

           my $menu1 = [
               { -label => 'option 1', -value => '1-1' },
               { -label => 'option 2', -value => '1-2' },
               { -label => 'option 3', -value => '1-3' },
           ];

           my $menu2 = [
               { -label => 'option 1', -value => \&sel1 },
               { -label => 'option 2', -value => \&sel2 },
               { -label => 'option 3', -value => \&sel3 },
           ];

           my $submenu = [
               { -label => 'suboption 1', -value => '3-3-1' },
               { -label => 'suboption 2', -callback=> \&do_it },
           ];

           my $menu3 = [
               { -label => 'option 1', -value => \&sel2 },
               { -label => 'option 2', -value => \&sel3 },
               { -label => 'submenu 1', -submenu => $submenu },
           ];

           my $menu = [
               { -label => 'menu 1', -submenu => $menu1 },
               { -label => 'menu 2', -submenu => $menu2 }
               { -label => 'menu 3', -submenu => $menu3 }
           ];

METHODS
       o   new ( OPTIONS )

       o   layout ( )

       o   draw ( BOOLEAN )

       o   focus ( )

           These are standard methods. See Curses::UI::Widget for an explanation of these.

DEFAULT BINDINGS
       o   <escape>

           Call the 'escape' routine. This will have the menubar loose its focus and return the
           value 'ESCAPE' to the calling routine.

       o   <tab>

           Call the 'return' routine. This will have the menubar loose its focus and return the
           value 'LOOSE_FOCUS' to the calling routine.

       o   <cursor-down>, <j>, <enter>

           Call the 'pulldown' routine. This will open the menulistbox for the current menu and
           give that menulistbox the focus. What happens after the menulistbox loses its focus,
           depends upon the returnvalue of it:

           * the value 'CURSOR_LEFT'

             Call the 'cursor-left' routine and after that
             call the 'pulldown' routine. So this will open
             the menulistbox for the previous menu.

           * the value 'CURSOR_RIGHT'

             Call the 'cursor-right' routine and after that
             call the 'pulldown' routine. So this will open
             the menulistbox for the next menu.

           * the value 'LOOSE_FOCUS'

             The menubar will keep the focus, but no
             menulistbox will be open.

           * the value 'ESCAPE'

             The menubar will loose its focus and return the
             value 'ESCAPE' to the calling routine.

           * A CODE reference

             The code will be excuted, the menubar will loose its
             focus and the returnvalue of the CODE will be
             returned to the calling routine.

           * Any other value

             The menubar will loose its focus and the value will
             be returned to the calling routine.

       o   <cursor-left>, <h>

           Call the 'cursor-left' routine. This will select the previous menu. If the first menu
           is already selected, the last menu will be selected.

       o   <cursor-right>, <l>

           Call the 'cursor-right' routine. This will select the next menu. If the last menu is
           already selected, the first menu will be selected.
