Hello,
I am not exactly sure how these get submitted to suckless but I have a small
feature I coded that I'd like to be added to dmenu.
I made a patch that lets me set the menu width using a -w parameter. When
using this and the lines parameter you can have a bit more freedom in how the
menu is presented.
Patch is attached.
Any feedback or comments are welcome,
ThanksJosh
