A convenient binding to dmenu.
Requires the process-1.0 package
Synopsis
- dmenu :: MonadIO m => [String] -> m String
- dmenuXinerama :: [String] -> X String
- dmenuMap :: MonadIO m => Map String a -> m (Maybe a)
- menu :: MonadIO m => String -> [String] -> m String
- menuArgs :: MonadIO m => String -> [String] -> [String] -> m String
- menuMap :: MonadIO m => String -> Map String a -> m (Maybe a)
- menuMapArgs :: MonadIO m => String -> [String] -> Map String a -> m (Maybe a)
Usage
You can use this module with the following in your Config.hs file:
import XMonad.Util.Dmenu
These functions block xmonad's event loop until dmenu exits; this means that programs will not be able to open new windows and you will not be able to change workspaces or input focus until you have responded to the prompt one way or another.
dmenuXinerama :: [String] -> X String Source #
Starts dmenu on the current screen. Requires this patch to dmenu: http://www.jcreigh.com/dmenu/dmenu-3.2-xinerama.patch
dmenuMap :: MonadIO m => Map String a -> m (Maybe a) Source #
Run dmenu to select an entry from a map based on the key.
menu :: MonadIO m => String -> [String] -> m String Source #
like dmenu
but also takes the command to run.
menuArgs :: MonadIO m => String -> [String] -> [String] -> m String Source #
Like menu
but also takes a list of command line arguments.
