That does what I want it to do, so thanks for that suggestion. What do
those cascade names become assuming the foreach brings back directory
names of dir1, dir2, dir3. Do they become: .m.mLessons.dir1
.m.mLessons.dir2 and .m.mLessons.dir3

Hmm..
Tcl/Tk is very simple. But some reading man pages (in this case, menu)
still helps.

As my (maybe too brief) explanation showed, to add a cascade you'd best
specify a new menu. How to call this is up to you - just make sure its
name doesn't start with an uppercase letter (that's why I put a "m" in
front).

You can call [glob] separately for subdirectories (-type d) and files
(-type f). I'd suggest first to do the directories, create a cascade
for each,

..m.whatever.m$dir create cascade -label $subdir -menu [menu
..m.whatever.m$dir.m$subdir]

and recurse into them (call the same procedure for each again). Then do
the files, adding a simple command to the current menu.
