## Description

A GtkOptionMenu is a widget that allows the user to choose from a list of valid choices. The GtkOptionMenu displays the selected choice. When activated the GtkOptionMenu displays a popup GtkMenu which allows the user to make a new choice.

Using a GtkOptionMenu is simple; build a GtkMenu, by calling `gtk_menu_new()`, then appending menu items to it with `gtk_menu_shell_append()`. Set that menu on the option menu with `gtk_option_menu_set_menu()`. Set the selected menu item with `gtk_option_menu_set_history()`; connect to the "changed" signal on the option menu; in the "changed" signal, check the new selected menu item with `gtk_option_menu_get_history()`.

As of GTK+ 2.4, GtkOptionMenu has been deprecated in favor of GtkComboBox.
