I like the idea of the Trail2Menu implementation. What I'm missing is the 
possibility to use links, which are not a PmWiki-Link, e.g. to other 
websides or using the Wiki-"Markups" ThisSite: ThisWiki: etc which are not 
resolved in Trail2Menu (because trail.php is not resolving it).
Because I need only a two level Menu I thought to implement a kind of 
conditional include:
e.g.:

Main.SideBar:

* group 1
=groupsidebar:group1
* group 2
=groupsidebar:group2

etc. This Main.Sidebar will be displayed on every page (I disabled the 
$Group.SideBar in my template using only Main.SideBar)
The implementation of substituting "=groupsidebar groupname" will only 
substitute the tag by the corresponding contents, if the displayed page is 
within the group, so "=groupsidebar:group1" will be displayed only within 
pages of group1 etc. (the used markup-style is just for testing, when it's 
finished - and be ready for a cookbook entry, I might better use the 
[[...]] style)
To implement this with include it first needs an include implementation 
like [[include:ThisGroup:SideBar]] or [[include:$Group.SideBar]] with the 
option, that the include is only resolved on a certain condition (page of 
the specified group is displayed).
So that would need to change the include-implementation - and the goal is 
not to change the pmwiki.php-script.

I will look for another way, maybe a can change / insert the array of text 
you mentioned.

Thanks for your quick help.
