Hello:
I've updated dmenu recently, and noticed that dinput is gone, because
it was merged into dmenu.
I'd personally like to have dinput back, because I think it's better suited to
some tasks than dmenu.
For example, I used dinput to quickly edit the URL in surf, because it required
less "interaction" than dmenu: the URL was right there, waiting to be edited.
In contrast, if I want to edit the URL in dmenu, I have to retype the URL, or
first Ctrl+Y, then Ctrl+G, and then paste into dmenu, all that "extra" steps in
order to edit the same URL.
Not a big deal, but I think dmenu and dinput are for different and
complementary things: dmenu is for quickly picking a string among many others,
while dinput if for quickly editing a given string.
Let me know what you think. I'd love to have dinput back.
Thanks.
