Marks the receiver as an alternate to the previous menu item.
If the receiver has the same key equivalent as the previous item, but has different key equivalent modifiers, the items are folded into a single visible item and the appropriate item shows while tracking the menu, depending on what modifier key (if any) is pressed. The menu items may also have no key equivalent as long as the key equivalent modifiers are different.
