Well, the short answer is, compare your reduced program to the original 
mditest.rbw example and figure out what you took out ;)

But here's a hint: look at the section of the original mditest.rb 
example program that begins with the comment "MDI buttons in menu..." 
and copy the code that creates any of the buttons that you're interested 
in. In your case, it sounds like you want to add an FXMDIDeleteButton, 
FXMDIRestoreButton and FXMDIMinimizeButton to the main menu bar.
