+;;; This is compatible with easymenu.el by Per Abrahamsen
+;;; but it is much simpler as it doesn't try to support other Emacs versions.
+;;; The code was mostly derived from lmenu.el.
+
+;;; Code:
+
+;;;###autoload.
+(defun easy-menu-define (symbol maps doc menu)
+ "Define a menu bar submenu in maps MAPS, according to MENU.
+The arguments SYMBOL and DOC are ignored; they are present for
+compatibility only.
+
+The first element of MENU must be a string. It is the menu bar item name.
+The rest of the elements are menu items.
+
+A menu item is a vector of three elements:
+
+ - the name of the menu item (a string);
+ - the `callback' of that item;
+ - t.
+
+If the `callback' of a menu item is a symbol, then it must name a
+command. It will be invoked with `call-interactively'. If it is a
+list, then it is evaluated with `eval'.
+
+If an element of a menu is a string, then that string appears in the
+menu as unselectable text.
+
+If an element of a menu is a string consisting solely of hyphens, then that
+item is displayed as a solid horizontal line.
+
+If an element of a menu is a list, it is treated as a submenu.
+The first element should be the submenu name. That's used as the
+menu item in the top-level menu. The cdr of the submenu list
+is a list of menu items, as above."
