This fork selects an item when you mouse out of the menu. Kill unclutter before using, it will potentially auto-select with a fake event.
WARNING:
The options -r, -m and -p are deprecated and were replaced by -x
and -X. The option -P (used to provide path) is now replaced by the
environment variable $ICONPATH, an environment variable which supports
several paths delimited by colons. Read the manual for more information.
Update your scripts after updating πmenu.
πmenu is a pie menu utility for X. πmenu receives a menu specification in stdin, shows a menu for the user to select one of the options, and outputs the option selected to stdout.
πmenu comes with the following features:
- πmenu reads something in and prints something out, the UNIX way.
- Submenus (some pie-menu slices can spawn another menu).
- Icons (pie-menu slices can contain icon image).
- X resources support (you don't need to recompile πmenu for configuring it).
The files are:
./README.md: This file../Makefile: The makefile../config.h: The hardcoded default configuration for πmenu../pmenu.1: The manual file (man page) for πmenu../pmenu.c: The source code of πmenu../pmenu.sh: A sample script illustrating how to use πmenu.
First, edit ./Makefile or set the proper environment variables to
match your local setup.
In order to build πmenu you need the Imlib2, Xlib and Xft header files
(and some X extensions: XShape and Xinerama).
The default configuration for πmenu is specified in the file config.h,
you can edit it, but most configuration can be changed at runtime via
X resources. Enter the following command to build πmenu. This command
creates the binary file ./pmenu.
make
By default, πmenu is installed into the /usr/local prefix. Enter the
following command to install πmenu (if necessary as root). This command
installs the binary file ./pmenu into the ${PREFIX}/bin/ directory,
and the manual file ./pmenu.1 into ${MANPREFIX}/man1/ directory.
make install
πmenu receives as input a menu specification where each line is a menu entry. Each line can be indented with tabs to represent nested menus. Each line is made out of a label and a command separated by any number of tabs.
See the script ./pmenu.sh for an example of how to use πmenu to draw a simple pie menu.
Read the manual for more information on running πmenu.
