The MacPython IDE crashes if your scripts folder is very large (or, 
alternatively, if you select a very large folder as the scripts 
folder), and here "large" counts files in subdirs, etc.

The problem is that we have a fixed number of menu entry IDs, 
and we run out of them.

Fixed by stopping traversal of the scripts folder as soon as we allocate a 
menu ID > 200. This leaves 55 menu ids as headroom.

Fixed in Wapplication.py rev. 1.24 and 1.22.8.1.
