MenuItem.setText

Sets the receiver's text. The string may include the mnemonic character and accelerator text. <p> Mnemonics are indicated by an '&amp;' that causes the next character to be the mnemonic. When the user presses a key sequence that matches the mnemonic, a selection event occurs. On most platforms, the mnemonic appears underlined but may be emphasised in a platform specific manner. The mnemonic indicator character '&amp;' can be escaped by doubling it in the string, causing a single '&amp;' to be displayed. </p> <p> Accelerator text is indicated by the '\t' character. On platforms that support accelerator text, the text that follows the '\t' character is displayed to the user, typically indicating the key stroke that will cause the item to become selected. On most platforms, the accelerator text appears right aligned in the menu. Setting the accelerator text does not install the accelerator key sequence. The accelerator key sequence is installed using #setAccelerator. </p>
