an edit menu that you build yourself is the same as any other menu
so you will need:
- to build it,
- in your menu handler to call functions that will handle these
- activate or disactivate the menus accordingly
   [is there something in the scrap? no, then you can't paste...]
  you will also need to import and export scrap when you background and
foreground your app. and check if the scrap changed.

the next part depends on what you are using in the way of runtime...
appearance brought a radical change in the way that scrap is handled.
before there were a few simple commands, nw it is more like the
drag manager with 'flavors'.

i believe that rp has some appearance compliant scrap demos
on the fb cd.
