Since you would want to make a menu appear or disappear depending on
which file was current (even when editing files of different types
side-by-side, let's say an HTML page with its CSS and JS included
scripts), you would need to have BufEnter autocommands to set the menus
you want in the window being entered but not in others, and BufLeave
autocommands to unset them when leaving. Or you might disable them
instead, which would not entail full re-creation; I don't know whether
in that case the disabled menus would be hidden or just greyed-out.
Best regards,
Tony.
