wm-agnostic, X11 menu
d8a7caf2e3
In previous versions, all the previous current visible menus are unmapped and the new currently visible menus are mapped when the current visible menu changed. Now, using an algorithm that finds the lowest common ancestor between current and current_new menus, only the necessary menus are remapped on the display. |

xmenu Xmenu is a menu utility for X. Xmenu receives a menu specification in stdin, shows a menu for the user to select one of the options, and outputs the option selected to stdout. § Installation In order to build xmenu you need the Xlib header files. Edit config.mk to match your local setub (dwm is installed into the /usr/local prefix by default). Then enter the following command to build and install dwm (if necessary as root). ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ make clean install │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ § Running xmenu xmenu receives as input a menu specification where each line is a menu entry. Each line can be indented with tabs to represent nested menus. Each line is made out of a label and a command separated by any number of tabs. Lines without labels are menu separators. See the script ./xmenu.sh for an example of how xmenu can be used to draw a simple menu with submenus and separators.
