A few other freebie options for the Cascading Menu are:

Either Tillanosoft Program Menu or Small Menu.

WisBar Advanced 1.3.2.2

Personally, I use Tillanosoft Program Menu. I also used WisBar Advanced, but not for the Cascading Menu. I like Tillanosoft's better, so I have a button in WisBar assigned to Tillanosoft. I also have the standard Windows PPC Start Menu still available as well. And the Windows PPC Start Menu does show icons for the last few apps executed.

What's really nice about Tillanosoft, is the Cascading Menus are white with black text, which makes it very easy to view. Also they allow many subfolders, within the \Start Menu\Programs. GSPocketMagic limits you to 6 subfolders, and it does not show subfolders within other subfolders.

In Tillansoft, you can have a shortcut link to a folder (such as My Documents), and the Cascading Menu will allow you to see the contents of the folder (all of your documents and files). If you have the document/file type assigned to specific apps, you can then click on a document/file in the Cascading Menu, and the appropriate app will open and process the document you selected. I do this with many types of documents and files, such as MP3's, eBooks, Word, Excel, TXT, etc. It makes it very easy to just go to a specific document, and then have the appropriate app start and show that specific document.
