Hi, Carlos!

Thank you for your fast reply.
And sorry for my delay.

Silly, but I never install suckless software with make install, always only
make and then cp to the apropriate directories.
Thanks that pointed me into Makefile. I didn't even think to look there.
And now I realised that I can do make DESTDIR=~local install. : )

But, I stay have the same feelings about inconsistency of dmenu in that
way, that all executables are have X-bit set on, exept  dmenu_path.
In Makefile all of them are gained X-bit again. Is dmenu_path has some
other rights then dmenu_run, dmenu or stest?
dmenu_run and dmenu_path are shell scripts, dmenu and stest - binary
executables. And, without this X-bit it feels that dmenu_path is not
integral
part of dmenu.

Maybe it is silly to talk about such little thing. That one of the users
feels it is bad. And, maybe it is only a waste of time of sucklessdevelopers to
talk about it. But, actually, this frustrates me a little bit.

Thanks for your time and sorry, that I didn't do this email shorter.
