- package require since the new code is a proper Tcl package
- namespace import to get the mm command in the global namespace as before
- all occurrences of -cmd have been changed to -command

DKF - Making accelerators work automatically is non-trivial; getting the mapping between characters and keys is very tricky indeed! However, I've found that it is easier if you go from the binding to the accelerator string, and not the other way round. You can then even do tricks like making the bindings be to virtual events (like <<Paste>>) and then pick up the correct platform defaults that Tk picks out for you. Which is a very neat trick indeed!s
RBR - This one non-obvious idiom I've encountered using this code. If you want to stick in a place-holder menu item that is non-functional and you want it to be disabled (a la -state disabled), then you do not use -state disabled. Instead use -when 0. This is because mm update walks through it's list of variables and will enable all menus which do not have a -when clause.
