the menus are defined in text files now. any user can define their own
menus as they wish. neat, eh?

if you have anicomp, the relevant menu item is:

	<menuitem action='aniConnect'/>

as before, the action is not available unless AniComp can be found in
your PATH.

you use MTC+SMPTE for this. you do need a converter for now, because we
still don't have SMPTE converters inside JACK or Ardour.
