[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Hiding Menubar ...

[ Yes Virginia, There really is a Line Eat- *CHOMP* ]

I am writing a CDEV screen saver (isn't everyone these days) and have run into
a small problem.  How do you make the MenuBar go away totally?  I have defined
the window to have the rect Screenbits.bounds but the Menubar insists on
drawing itself on top of it.  I have nose through InsideMac but can't find any
reference to removing the menubar (or hiding it) at all.  I know I am missing
something, it can't be that hard.  Any help?

I've just downloaded turbomenus from somewhere (I canna remember!) and it's realy neat.  For those of you who have no idea what I talking about, I brings up a  pop-up menu when you hold down the mouse button with Command-Shift pressed.  The pop-up contains the menubar.  This is what Sun Windows uses isn't it (big guess) ? Anyway, what I'd like is an INIT (extension :-)) that will hide the menubar so that I get more screen space (worth it on the SE!) and can use these pop-up menus instead.

BTW I'm using sys 7.  and would the hiding of the menubar then disable these
pop-ups ?

Thanks in advance,

Dave "Vizard" White
