Right. OTOH, using submenus (instead of loading menu.c32 again and 
again) requires more directives to get the same (or as similar as 
possible) effect on the menu finally shown, so that's "inefficient" 
too.

Well, since there is no equivalent to the generic "MENU EXIT", I'll 
have to consider what's better in my case: pointing to the specific 
cfg (no generic term is possible except for the 'main' cfg), or using 
more directives with submenus.

Thank you for your answer,
Ady.
