Setup menu

[alexei]

I often get lost in the setup menu-- 37 items is a lot, and the alphabetical order and the mix of important and unimportant entries makes it hard to grok. I would propose to break it up into logical submenus as follows. I will implement this and post the code, if it helps. Comments welcome.

The 'Lists' group could perhaps be combined with the Lists topmenu. Modules could be divided into three pages (but that's a bigger job). "Printers" and "Graphics" from the File topmenu could be moved to the "Computer" section.

Well, I did this-- it's pretty trivial with the automatic form designer. I still think it's a good idea, if The Powers That Be want to incorporate it.

Better organization of the setup menu would be great - I have a hard time remembering where to find things and often end up looking in several places.

I'd also like to see Schedules moved elsewhere - maybe under Lists? It's somewhere that our staff frequently goes (to edit and to view/print), where all the other "setup" items are only modified by the Admin (me) and not very often.
