[protege-discussion] using PromptTab in my own application

[Timothy Redmond]

I  don't think that anyone has  used prompt in an application in this  
way.  This is caused when the prompt tab tries to add a menu to  
Protege and does not succeed in finding the menu bar.  I have fixed  
this in the latest svn.
