Hidden menu items

the other day, i was messing around with the menus that come up when you shift-click the loop in the R in scratch logo. i tried shift-clicking the File menu and it showed two extra menu options (Write Project Summary and Write Multiple Project Summaries). you don't need to have screen fill off to do that. when you Write Project Summary, it write information and your projects source code into a text file. Write Multiple Project Summaries does the same thing, but with a whole folder of projects (including all subfolders). Why would you need a project summary and what are the menu items there for?

Re: Hidden menu items

A project summary is basically a word pad document about your project, its sort of pointless. I don't really know what the menu items are for.

Re: Hidden menu items

The project summary is equivalent to project notes, I believe, which are what appears to the right of an uploaded project on the Scratch Website.

No. Here's what I got when I saved a default project titled "default" with no author and project notes as "test"

Code:

Project: default
Author: 
Scratch: 1.4 of 30-Jun-09
Notes:
    test

History:
    2011-7-3 20:40:28    save    default        

Totals: 
    Sprites: 1
    Stacks: 0
    Unique costumes: 3
    Unique sounds: 2
--------
Sprite: Stage
  Costumes (1):
    background1 (480x360)
  Sounds (1):
    pop (0:00:00)
  No stacks.
--------
Sprite: Sprite1
  Costumes (2):
    costume1 (95x111)
    costume2 (95x111)
  Sounds (1):
    meow (0:00:01)
  No stacks.
