Re: Chaging NSStatusItem menus.

Hey,

I think I figured out why my change isn't instantaneous like I was 
complaining before. I have a subclassed menuWillOpen: which updates my 
data upon open. Maybe I need to rework my code. Is there any if 
statement that could get me around this code problem?

Thanks,
Jeremy
