[tkinter] Event from menu event?

[Greg McFarlane]

Please, please, do not use eval or exec unless in an emergency (or
when testing/debugging).  There almost always cleaner (and safer) ways
of doing what you want.  For example:

    def myfunc(label):
	print label

    for each_class in draw_class_name:
	mymenu.add_command(
	    label = each_class,
	    command = lambda e = each_class: myfunc(e)
	)
