Hi folk
would someone mind explaining to me how to install Rofi on linux mint?
I downloaded the zip
extracted it
put all the files in the ~/bin
My ~/bin is in my $PATH and looks like this:

sherab@sherab-Librem-13-v2:~/bin$ ls
bwmenu  img  lib-bwmenu  LICENSE  README.md

but i get the following error:

sherab@sherab-Librem-13-v2:~/bin$ bwmenu 
/home/sherab/bin/bwmenu: line 52: rofi: command not found
/home/sherab/bin/bwmenu: line 86: rofi: command not found

Any suggestions?
I am sure i miss something!

Have you installed rofi? It should be in your package manager.
(This should probably be mentioned in the README too.)

You only need to place the bwmenu and lib-bwmenu files inside your ~/bin.

Thank you @Mange
I didn't get that Rofi is what needs to be installed from the Software manager.
So now when i run it do i just need to put the credentials of BW ?

Yeah, follow the install instructions of bwcli and log in to your account using it. After that you should be able to use bwmenu.
