Hoi, AFAIR it was already anounced here some time ago: a patch to add a vertical list selection to dmenu. More information about the patch can be found here [0] and the patch is located here [1].
[0] http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=54086 [1] http://schiewek.net/fresch/dmenu-3.9-fresch-3.diff Now, I wanted to have this vertical list functionality and had a look. Unfortunately, the patch adds a whole lot of bloat to dmenu. :-( Thus I created a stripped-down version of it that only adds the basic vertical functionality and nothing more. You find it at [2]. [2] http://prog.marmaro.de/dwm-meillo/dmenu-4.0-vertical_meillo.diff See this patch as a quick hack, so improvements are welcome. $ diffstat dmenu-4.0-vertical_meillo.diff config.mk | 2 - dmenu.1 | 7 ++++- dmenu.c | 82 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ 3 files changed, 82 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) I think it's too big to add it to vanilla dmenu, but I think it's worth to mention it on the website. I'll do it myself if no one did it until I find time to do it. meillo
