Menu Inventor started out as a quasi-object-oriented project and the menu structure is surprisingly stored in a index-linked list (rather than in a tree, that suggests itself)! However, I had my own reasons to do so, firstly it is quick to implement, relatively easy to maintain and does not require so much cognitive activity .

However, that is why 1.0a almost reaches its limits, it lacks flexibility and so in order to keep Menu Inventor expandable, the nuts and bolts have to be rewritten. So is the aim of FOOR (yes, I am nuts about abbreviations), which shall make Menu Inventor fully objective and will embed a tree structure.
