Hi, I wrote this utility that is based on dmenu. It receives a menu specification in stdin, shows a menu for the user to select one of the options, and outputs the option selected to stdout. It support multiple xft fonts and icons.
I wrote it first as an exercise for understanding Xlib and dmenu code. Some functions from dmenu's drw.c were rewritten and simplified. You can find it here: https://github.com/phillbush/xmenu It depends on Xlib, Xft, Xinerama, and Imlib2. Xmenu got featured in a video from DistroTube: https://invidio.us/watch?v=wMrdCbrQjnQ You can bind it to open on right click on the root window using another utility of mine: xclickroot (https://github.com/phillbush/xclickroot). Or you can use dwm's ClkRootWin command on buttons[]. I would appreciate any comments or criticism.
