Just to make sure I have this straight ...

If I want to handle events such as menu item picks in an application then
I must:

1) create a class which inherits from Frame such as MyFrame

2) override the handleEvent or action member function there to handle
   menu item picks or other events

3) create a class which inherits Applet such as MyApp
   (I got this idea from an example.  Is the purpose of this to allow my
    application to run as both an application and an applet?)

4) create an instance of MyFrame in MyApp

I can't handle events by overriding handleEvent or action in MyApp.

Correct?
