in pdmtl abstractions the 1.browser.pd doesn't have any menu or scrollbar. this hack is done without editing pd.tk - also disabling ctrl+e. tof did it, so i don't know the detail about this little hack. but i think he used toxy to do it.
Most likely using a tk command like [pack forget .x%x.whatever] or [destroy .x%x.whatever]. Most likely [pack forget], because then the scrollbar still exists, so that things that are interacting with the scrollbar don't get an error trying to interact with a dead object.
The menu bar is a special thing. ten years ago, people were using normal tk widgets and layouts to make a menu bar. However, to integrate better with the Mac, the [pack forget .x%x.whatever] command can't be used, as the layout is handled by the window itself; therefore it has to be done using [.x%x configure -menubar something].
