Luke's dmenu

Extra stuff added to vanilla dmenu:

  • reads Xresources (ergo pywal compatible)
  • alpha patch, which importantly allows this build to be embedded in transparent st
  • can view color characters like emoji (libxft-bgra is required for this reason)
  • -P for password mode: hide user input
  • -r to reject non-matching input
  • dmenu options are mouse clickable

Crony's additions

Extra stuff added in my build on top of luke's additions:

  • extented numpad keys support
  • line height with -h option
  • item count in the right corner of dmenu

Installation

You must have libxft-bgra installed until the libxft upstream is fixed.

After making any config changes that you want, but make, sudo make install it.
