                     12:  *                     to identify a selection request.  When a selection

                     22:  *                     to another menu pane the pane being entered is raised
                     23:  *                     and activated and the pane being left is inactivated.

                     29:  *                     p_num and s_num indices will be set to indicate
                     30:  *                     the currently active pane and/or selection.  If the
