Tkinter: menu entry - icon+text

[Uwe Mayer]

Hi there,

i was trying to create a menubar where each entry in the i.e. "File" 
pull down menu was equipped not only by a text xor an icon but both:

[ <icon>   <description>           <shortcut>]

i.e.
[ <blank>  New Document            Ctrl-N]

however the Tkinter.Menu.add() method only supports 'command', 
'cascade', 'checkbutton', 'radiobutton' and 'separator'.

Originally I tried to pack the icon, text and shortcut into a frame 
widget, but Menu won't accept or display it propperly.
Is there any workaround?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Yours
Uwe
