6This menu is different from all the others: It is yours. The menu is initially
7empty (and disabled). There are
8:ref:`python scripting commands which will add menu elements <fontforge.ui_functions>`
9(and submenus). Presumably this will be done from python startup scripts but
10it could be done at any time.
11
12If your build did not contain python then this menu will not be present. In
13builds with python the menu will only exist in the font and outline glyph views.

15At some point there may be some standard python scripts that ship with
16fontforge, and their behavior will then be documented here. Currently there are
17no such scripts.
