Hi Nio, and all!

I have now pushed the update after testing it a few times.  Currently it
only works well with our menu file.  It also has a default mode when the
menu file does not exist which will make a basic menu with non-localized
menu names, using the actual category name.

My future plan, and goal is to support using ANY menu file.  So if you
like the format of the xfce, lxde, etc... menu you can simply pass that
file as an argument.  It will currently build somewhat of a menu for
other menu files, so you can test it via something like

jwm-menu xfce-applications.menu

OR

jwm-menu /etc/xdg/menus/lxde-applications.menu


It MAY or MAY NOT build a good menu for you...

IF it screw up your menus and you want to revert run

jwm-menu --reload

This will simply rebuild the default menu.


Both the default using our menu, and the generic using category names
work MUCH faster that previously.  So when you get updates, and the menu
reloads it will be much much faster to reload JWM.

I will spend some more effort to support the places menu at some point,
and also I will work on getting the places menu to be faster and still
support the configurable menu depth as I currently have it.

For the places menu if you want more menu depth currently you can either
manually edit the config file, or run an argument to jwm-places.

Config file is

~/.config/menus/jwm-places.conf

Here is the default:

submenus=0

You can edit it with whatever value you like, though the higher the
depth the longer it takes to build the menu.

You can also simply run something like

jwm-places 2

This will set the submenu depth to 2

This is what the config file will look like:

submenus=2

The visual difference is:
