Is it possible to determine the menus and menu items of another running
application from within my application?

I don't mean to actually acquire the object ptr's, etc... Just the text of
the menus and the menu items and perhaps any key equivalents...

You can probably do this through the Accessibility APIs introduced in Jaguar.

The user will probably have to have Accessibility turned on for your application to work though.
