Options Menu
The Options Menu is different for each window, showing the viewing options available within that window. In the Source Window, for example, one of the options is whether to display line numbers.
Window Menu

If the window exists already, its item will be marked as such; selecting the item will cause the window to be put in front if it is obscured. If the window does not exist, then it will be created. The second part of the menu lists additional windows that you may have created, such as source windows or variable displays. Selections on this menu include:
