First, my apologies for the wrong subject line in my previous message,
and thank you to Kent Johnson for his useful pointer.
Moving along....
I would like to change the label 'File' to 'Fichier' in the following
example.
I've tried various options, but with no success.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

================
from Tkinter import *
from tkFileDialog import askopenfilename
def makemenu(self):
top = Menu(self)
self.config(menu=top)
def changeLang():
if v.get() == 'fr':
fileMenu.entryconfig(0, label='Ouvrir')
fileMenu.entryconfig(1, label='Quitter')
# --> here is where I would like to set the label
else:
fileMenu.entryconfig(0, label='Open')
fileMenu.entryconfig(1, label='Quit')
def onOpen():
filename = askopenfilename()
msg['text'] = filename
fileMenu = Menu(top, tearoff=0)
fileMenu.add_command(label='Open', command=onOpen)
fileMenu.add_command(label='Quit', command=self.quit)
# the following is the label that I would like to change
top.add_cascade(label='File', menu=fileMenu)
otherMenu = Menu(top, tearoff=0)
# I would like eventually to change the following label also...
top.add_cascade(label='Other', menu=otherMenu)
LANGUAGES = [
('English', 'en'),
('Francais', 'fr') ]
v = StringVar()
v.set('en') # initialize
for text, language in LANGUAGES:
lang = Radiobutton(root, text=text, variable=v, value=language,
command=changeLang)
lang.pack(anchor=W)
msg = Label(root, text='test')
msg.pack()
if __name__ == '__main__':
root = Tk()
makemenu(root)
root.mainloop()
