Good to know that WB3.2 already comes with all those features though.

It does, but sometimes it is nice to have a little extra commands or features so you might still have uses forr CLIcon.

If the command is a CLI command you have to use 'address command' which uses some additional apostrophes:
Code:
MENU ADD NAME '"iGame"' TITLE '"\Start...\iGame"' CMD "'address command ''sys:tools/igame/igame'''"
If you want the Icon of the programm processed to use tooltypes or the default tool just add wbload:
Code:
MENU ADD NAME '"shell"' TITLE '"\Start...\Shell"' CMD "'address command ''wbload sys:system/shell'''"
For starting a normal CLI script use execute:
Code:
MENU ADD NAME '"jitoff"' TITLE '"\UAE\JIT\JIT Off"' CMD "'address command ''execute s:uae_scripts/jitoff'''"
If you want to start an arexx script or other arexx commands, there are no additional apostrophes as the menu script itself is arexx:
Code:
MENU ADD NAME '"drawertemp"' TITLE '"\Drawers\Temp"' CMD "rexx:win ram:t"
With this 4 ways to start stuff you can do, more or less, everything. All that's left is writing or downloading some usefull scripts. Some good ones are in the T.H.E. package found on Aminet.

Thank you so much for this.
I have been using your examples.
Now I had a shortcut to load Dopus from the menu. It worked no problem. However the CFG file was not being loaded. My knowledge was not able to figure out why. However from your menutools script I saw you used WBLoad as the command to open Dopus, so I used this and HEY PRESTO! The cfg file loaded alongside the program.
This is really great knowledge so thanks for sharing.
So far have created this -
Also attached my menutools
