 Start typing in keywords to list out entries. Press Enter to select an entry. The selected entry will be run through a shell.
 To set spmenu options, you pass arguments to 'spmenu_run' directly. See 'spmenu --help' for a list of valid arguments.
 To configure spmenu, you may also copy /usr/share/spmenu/example.Xresources to $HOME/.config/spmenu/spmenurc and edit that.
