Daniel Lipp All menu entries for the Tool API are defined in the default.ini file in your tools subdirectory.
If your menu entry should appear in the tools menu use:
Menu-Items=MyMenuName,any.package.MyClassName,;
In other words you just omit the parameter "-P", "-p" or "-c" (what would add the menues to the context menu of Projects, Packages or Classes.

FAQ Manager's Comment: This is covered in detail by the VAJ Help pages. In the Help system, look under Topics > Tasks > "Integrating external tools and classes." There is also a PDF file named toolint.pdf (or toolinj2.pdf if you're using a Java2 version of VAJ) that should be installed under the doc directory with VAJ.
