:PROPERTIES: :ID: 1ef7425a-812f-45d1-812c-6a6ca6397289 :END: #+title: dmenu dmenu is a fast and lightweight dynamic menu for [[id:1cb23984-71e0-4f08-ae48-3c2e1e79622f][X]]. It reads arbitrary text from stdin, and creates a menu with one item for each line. The user can then select an item, through the arrow keys or typing a part of the name, and the line is printed to stdout. dmenu_run is a wrapper that ships with the dmenu distribution that allows its use as an application launcher.
