<h2 id="what-is-spmenu">What is spmenu?</h2>
|
||
<p>spmenu is an X11 menu application based on <a
|
||
href="https://tools.suckless.org/dmenu">dmenu</a> which takes standard
|
||
input, parses it, and lets the user choose an option and sends the
|
||
selected option to standard output.</p>
|
||
<p>In addition to this, it also serves as a run launcher through the
|
||
included shell script <code>spmenu_run</code>, which handles both $PATH
|
||
listing and .desktop entries.</p>
|
||
<p>It is designed to integrate well with my <a
|
||
href="https://dwm.suckless.org">dwm</a> fork, <a
|
||
href="https://git.speedie.site/speedwm">speedwm</a>.</p>
|
||
<h2 id="special-features">Special features</h2>
|
||

<h2 id="todo">TODO</h2>
|
||
<p>Pull requests would be greatly appreciated for any of these
|
||
issues!</p>
|
||
<h3 id="general">General</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Image support: Stop using OpenSSL for caching images, mostly because
|
||
MD5() is deprecated as of OpenSSL 3.0, but this would also make it very
|
||
easy to have LibreSSL compatibility.</li>
|
||
<li>Image support: Ability to display icons, similar to rofi</li>
|
||
<li>Matching: Add support for contextual completions similar to
|
||
xprompt</li>
|
||
<li>Text drawing: Use cairo for text drawing over Xft.</li>
|
||
<li>Matching: FIFO, used to dynamically refresh entries.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h3
|
||
id="unlikely-but-maybe-at-some-point-in-the-distant-future">Unlikely,
|
||
but maybe at some point in the distant future</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Wayland: Wayland support, but only if it doesn’t require writing any
|
||
extra code which as of now seems unlikely.
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Before this can even be done, replace Xft with cairo, deal with
|
||
keybinds in some Wayland compatible way, and figure out a way to
|
||
preserve X11 compatibility as I do not want to use Wayland anyway.</li>
|
||
<li>You can just use XWayland anyway if you happen to use Wayland, so
|
||
it’s not like you will be unable to use spmenu in its current
|
||
state.</li>
|
||
</ul></li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h3 id="bugs">Bugs</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Text drawing: Pango will sometimes spit out errors for invalid
|
||
markup. Silencing this would be a good idea.</li>
|
||
<li>Image support: Images take a long time to load sometimes,
|
||
particularly when items are selected using the cursor so what we really
|
||
need is a way to skip over images after a set time limit.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h2 id="scripts">Scripts</h2>
|
||
<p>This build of spmenu should work with all spmenu/dmenu scripts. <a
|
||
href="https://git.speedie.site/speedwm-extras">Here</a> are a few I’ve
|
||
written/use. If your scripts are useful enough, and written with spmenu
|
||
in mind, feel free to pull request and put your scripts here!</p>
