I'm going to look into why the mnemonic/accelerator keys aren't indicated in the menu.
It looks like the lack of underscores under the mnemonics is a Windows issue. I can't see any way to turn them on/off and I can't spot any sys tray icons that show the mnemonics. So I think it just can't be done.

Bill, you probably have "Hide underlined letters for keyboard navigation until I press the Alt key" (or at least, that's the wording in Windows XP) checked in the Display prefs. I think that's the default in win2k. Of course, it's pretty flawed, since pressing Alt will dismiss an open menu (but it works for things like the actual buttons themselves in a menubar).
I did, but that doesn't solve the problem for systray icon menus. It did cause one of my systray icon menus to start showing the underscores (Symantec PC Anywhere). But none of the others (including Mozilla) show them. I gave up trying to figure out why. Maybe Symantec PCAnywhere is doing owner-draw menus or something.
