#dmenu

2026-01-26

@carbontwelve Each #tui app,that you want to run from #dmenu in it's own terminal, must hawe .desktop file. E.g. I have #pyradio tui app, but to run it in new terminal, I have this in desktop file:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=PyRadio
GenericName=Terminal Radio Player
Comment=Curses based Radio Player
TryExec=pyradio
Exec=pyradio
Icon=pyradio
Terminal=true
Categories=Network

This is a really lovely launcher.

It will replace #dmenu for me (RIP Xorg).

One piece of software I miss is sxhkd for defining global shortcuts with a plain text file. Does anything like that exist for #Wayland? #Linux

I have an obscure problem.

I really like #dmenu for its simplicity and functionality.

But I don't like nazis. And I'd *really* like to use software that isn't made by them.

I've tried configuring and using #rofi but I just don't like it. Has anybody found an X11 launcher with the same feel as dmenu, but with devs that are less bent on seeing people like me dead?

I got tired of Windows Start Menu's bloat and lag, so I built WindMenu, a dmenu-like launcher for Windows.

Keyboard-first, minimal UI, instant response, pure Win32 APIs. Here's how it took shape:

All done, I think. That was fun, I forgot how much I enjoy patching and playing with configs.

I can't believe it took me until 2025 to realize that I needed a rofi-based address book for email address completions everywhere.

i wonder is there something like #dmenu for #android ?

Testing tofi as an (dmenu-like) application launcher for Wayland. Because it offers me a horizontal menu structure that I missed so much.

@warmaster

I found this project called `tofi` that seems to work the same way as dmenu but for Wayland. It is not in the Arch repos only in the AUR, so I guess it is not that popular.

Might be `rofi` the good option? It seems to have a Wayland-compatible version, too. What do you think?

My kingdom for two rows of favorites in #KissLauncher (on #Android).

It's such an awesome launcher. It's like using #dmenu / #rofi / #wofi on your phone ;)
