The Apple Menu on System 7+ works in very much the same way the pull-up menu from the Start Button in Windows 95 works. Just as in Windows 95, the Apple Menu gives you menu choices that are symbolic. You will notice that some of these menu choices have arrows pointing to the right. If these items are highlighted other menus appear with other choices. As these items are symbolic representations of directories, subdirectories, and files, deleting or copying does not affect the underlying files, just as is the case with other symbolic representation schemes.
