	I hacked mosfet's animated menu code (which was originally based on Mario's 
animated menu code) to get it working again.  I committed it into the 
highcolor scheme, and it will be part of mosfet's upcoming theme 
configuration.  Anyway, right now it defaults to off.  If you're building 
your own snapshots, just simply change line 1533 in 
kdelibs/kstyles/highcolor/hcstyle.cpp from:

  if (config->readBoolEntry("AnimateMenus", false))

to 

  if (config->readBoolEntry("AnimateMenus", true))

and build that.  There's only one animation, sliding from left to right.  I'm 
using it and am really happy with it.  There is one bug though, where the 
focus isn't working quite right, meaning you can pop up a menu for one 
window, and with focus follows mouse get into another window and pop up 
another menu.  I'm trying to figure out what the heck is happening but just 
can't seem to find the problem.  Other than that it seems to be working 
nicely (and I didn't even think I'd like animated menus...) -- Dan
