That spits out:

   ***   Can't call method "button" on an undefined value at 
./yarssr.pl line 148.
   ***  ignoring at ./yarssr.pl line 60.

and the menu will not popup.

I dumped @_ to see what is getting passed, and I don't see any event 
being passed. Here is what it lists.

   $VAR1 = bless( {}, 'Gtk2::Button' );

Perhaps something is wrong with the signal_connect on my button?

   my $button = Gtk2::Button->new_with_label("RSS");
   $button->signal_connect("released", \&menu_show);

Thanks very much for your help.
