MORE INFORMATION
The Help menu is drawn by the system software; it is not drawn by the
program that you are using. In earlier versions of the Macintosh system
software, the Help menu appears as a balloon icon on the right side of the
menu bar. In Mac OS 8.0, the Help menu appears to be integrated with the
menus of the program that you are using.
