This creates the menu file fine but openbox still seems very very intent
on not displaying this menu.
I also tried removing the default one or putting it in
.config/openbox/menu.xml but all I got was no menu at all. I even tried
removing everything but one entry and putting the same xml header from
the default menu but nothing seems to work. Is there some trick to this
that I am missing?
