I actually find this a very nice idea. When I don't have my external monitor connected, I often find that some of my menubar extras get hidden by the application menus, thus becoming inaccessible.

For those who keep asking what this program does: it's simply a do-nothing application with a single one-letter menu: "M". What this achieves is freeing most of the menubar, so that all your menubar extras are accessible on the right.

I still cannot fathom what this is supposed to do.

I was the Prez' of an Apple chartered Mac User Group (M.U.G.) for years, and have been a Mac fanatic since 1985. I have even done a little Mac consulting. I am a power-user.

I assume that English is not the primary language of the software developer.

Perhaps s/he can find someone fluent in English to translate some notes re: the function and use of Menuola2.0

Sometimes the simplest things are the most ingenious ones. People may laugh and say ”So what? It's just a menu!” - but someone had to breathe life into this idea.

Works like a charm. When I combine it with CornerClick ( http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/12413/cornerclick ), all I have to do is to click the menu's corner to get uncluttered access to all those small icons…

The only thing lacking is a way to hide the Menuola icon from the doc…
Menuola is worth 5 stars, but I give it only 4 for now, to encourage the developer to think about what I just wrote… ;-)

Re: Really Menuola is just an application with a single letter for the app name, and no menus - correct?

And surely it can be done with something smaller than a 5.9MB(!) download.

I like the idea of this app, because I am totally a menu item junkie. Unfortunately, I don't see anything happen when I restart my powerbook when this is set as a login item, only the splash window act up. There's no document comes with the app that explains what it does with my menu items, or how it'll work inside my computer. For now, I have to trash it until the devoloper can come out the working version.
