// make the menus and provide information on usage
//====================================================================================
//
// In order to customise your menus all you need to do is:
//   - edit the styles .dot, .dotoff and .caption
//   - add the main menu using the following code
//         var [menu_name] = new menuObject("[menu_name]", [x position], [y position], [caption], [spacing between sub menus]);
//   - add the subemus using:
//         var [sub_menu] = [menu_name].addItem([caption],[action],[spacing]);
//       OR
//         var [sub-sub_menu] = [sub_menu].addItem([caption],[action],[spacing]);
//       OR
//         [menu_name].subMenus[x].addItem([caption],[action],[spacing]);
//
//       - where action is string that get's evaluated when the dot is clicked
//
//       (NOTE the spacing is optional and if left blank gets inherited
//             and is equal to the  (parent's value)/2 - the default for
//             the main menu item is 400)
//
//   - the following allow extra manipulation of the menus:
//          + menuItem.show()              - show's the menu's dot
//          + menuItem.showCaption()       - show's the menu's caption
//          + menuItem.hide()
//          + menuItem.hideCaption()
//          + menuItem.startAngle = x      - default is 0-degrees which means the first submenu appears 
//                                           directly to the right, the following items are traced in a
//                                           clockwise direction
//          + menuItem.setCaption("text")  - allows you to change a menus caption
//          + menuItem.expand()            - opens a menus submenus (if they exist)
//          + menuItem.collapse()          - closes a menu's subItems (unless one of them is open)
//
//          + menuItem.moveMe(x,y)         - moves a menu to coordinates (x,y)
//          + menuItem.moveBy(x,y)         - moves a menu by (x,y)-pixels
//          + menuItem.x() & menuItem.y()  - retrieve a menus coordinates
