[dev] [dmenu] getting dmenu to use multiselect with tab completion

2010-07-18 Thread Sean Neilan
Hey All,

I've been at this for hours.. I want dmenu to be able to select one command
(like gvim) and then let me press a space and select another command with
tab completion. Right now, dmenu selects the first command with tab
completion but then the second command loses tab completion.

In xmonad, for some reason, I was able to get this to work. I haven't been
able to find instructions on how I did it and the computer I did it on is
many, many miles away & the ssh got messed up due to someone else's poor
networking abilities.

I've tried the latest version from the repo & the multiselect patch.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for your time.

I'm sorry, I found what I was looking for a couple minutes after I sent this
email.

 <http://lists.suckless.org/dwm/0901/7355.html>This patch will let you use
tab completion to select a file. Wow.

But, I also found this program called bashrun which is like dmenu but has a
whole bash shell in a little bar.
http://bashrun.sourceforge.net/

<http://bashrun.sourceforge.net/>Sorry about that. For some reason, one
spends hours looking for something, asks for help & then just finds it.
