Well, you'd almost got it! The example uses a 'bitmaps' directory
in the Chapter04 example directory.

You added the line:

bitmap_path = 'D:\\usr\\X11R6.4\\include\\X11\\bitmaps\\'

but then never used it!

Try:

menuBar.addmenuitem('Buttons', 'command',
                     bitmap="@bitmap_path\\RotateLeft",
                     foreground='Yellow')
