Tkinter menus

[Gigs_]

>> master is a reference to a Tk() or Toplevel(). Frames do not contain 
>> menus, but the windows that contain them do.

btw im tkinter newbie so this question could be stupid

is it alright to use Menu instead Toplevel or Tk
like this?

from Tkinter import *
from tkMessageBox import *

class MenuDemo(Menu):
     def __init__(self, master=None):
         Menu.__init__(self, master)
         self.createWidgets()
         self.master.title('Toolbars and Mennus')
         self.master.iconname('tkpython')

     def createWidgets(self):
         self.makeMenuBar()
         self.makeToolBar()
         L = Label(self.master, text='Menu and Toolbar demo')
         L.config(relief=SUNKEN, width=40, height=10, bg='white')
         L.pack(expand=YES, fill=BOTH)
