Pop-up menu

Can anyone help me with a CAPI question.

I want to create a standard Mac OS X pop-up menu, the sort with a
double-headed arrow that pops up above and below the button.

The call capi:popup-menu-button creates a non-standard "drop-down menu" that
works OK, but looks non-standard.

I've noticed that some of the LispWorks tools (eg Symbol Browser) have the
sort of pop-up menu I want, but I can't see how to get it.

Thanks,
David Johnson-Davies

I don't know the answer (nor am I on a Mac), but you might gain some insight 
by using the Works->Tools->Window Browser tool to poke around and see what 
the Lispworks IDE windows are composed of.

It's the capi:option-pane
