How to create personalized menu in virtuoso layout editor

Hi, I have written few scripts in skill language. I want group all the scripts together into a single menu in virtuoso layout editor. Like in the layout editor window there are several menus at the top containing multiple functions, I want to create my personalized menu in the layout editor window. I also want to put that script in the .cdsinit file, so that when cadence will be started the menus will be loaded automatically in the layout editor window like the other menus. Thanks in advance, Amit
