Here a new version of the patch for current cvs/snapshot.

This patch add a new options to Colorset: Translucent/NoTranslucent.

These options has effects only with (non tear-off) menu.

Also menu animation is "handled".



For example with:



  Colorset 5 fg yellow, bg blue, HGradient 200 lightblue darkblue, \

	  Translucent blue 60

  Style * MenuColorset 5, PopupOffset 0 100, AnimationOff



you get translucent menus (with a 60% blue tint) and if you tear-off

a menu the menu use the gradient.



Regards, Olivier
