I think that we should consider adding a few more sub-menues
to the Options menu to make more of the built-in functionality
of emacs directly selectable:

        More Display Options   ->

                Reveal Mode
                Show Trailing Whitespace
                Blinking Cursor
                Display Image Files
                Glasses mode
                Highlight current line
                Resize Minibuffer Mode

        More Editing Options   ->

                Auto-Expand Abbreviations
                Auto-Revert files (when changed outside emacs)
                Auto-Save files
                C warning Mode
                Refill Mode
                Write using mouse (Strokes mode)

        More Environment Options   ->

                Interactive Buffer Switching
                Incremental completion mode
                Mouse avoidance mode  ->  [option list]
                Mouse wheel support
                CUA mode
                VIPER mode
                Delete Selection mode
                PC selection mode
                Remember Recently Edited files
                Undoable window changes (winner mode)

Also on Show/Hide, add

                Battery indicator
                Ruler
                Current function name (Which Function mode)


On the edit menu, add

                Overwrite Mode
                Artist Mode
                Picture Mode
