You can restore the default settings again (which do give you the
menus) by doing the following:
# cp -r /usr/local/share/afterstep/non-configurable \
~/GNUStep/Library/AfterStep/non-configurable
This will replace your currently used personal settings with the default
ones. You will not immediately see any difference. Afterstep needs to be
restarted.
>From the commandline quit afterstep using:
#killall afterstep
The above worked for me just today as I ran into a similiar problem. I am
using RedHat which wiped out my ~/G/L/A/start directories upon starting
afterstep. I later selected the "update all" option from the menus. This
resulted in just the application menus and none of the afterstep specific
ones. I restored the afterstep menu options by following the steps above.
I have since followed the README.RedHat file that came with the source top
avoid changes to my ~/G/L/A/start directory being lost.
