The current branch is a C rewrite of previous shell and python version of `xdg-xmenu`. This C version can launch xmenu directly, due to a faster execution time.\n\nFor the legacy shell and python versions, see corresponding branches of this git repository.\n\n## Requirements\n\n- [libinih](https://github.com/benhoyt/inih), or called 'inih', to parse the desktop entry files.\n  [Available](https://repology.org/project/inih/versions) in most major distros.\n\n## Usage\n\n```\nxdg-xmenu [-dGhIn] [-b ICON] [-i THEME] [-s SIZE] [-S SCALE] [-t TERMINAL]\n          [-x CMD] [-- \u003cxmenu_args\u003e]\n\nA simple app menu with xmenu.\n\nOptions:\n  -h          Show this help message and exit\n  -b ICON     Fallback icon name, default is application-x-executable\n  -d          Dump generated menu, do not run xmenu\n  -G          Do not show generic name of the app\n  -i THEME    Icon theme for app icons. Default to gtk3 settings\n  -I          Disable icon in xmenu\n  -n          Do not run app, output to stdout\n  -s SIZE     Icon size for app icons\n  -S SCALE    Icon scale factor, useful in HiDPI screens\n  -t TERMINAL Terminal emulator to use, default is xterm\n  -x CMD      Xmenu command to use, default is xmenu\nNote:\n  Options after `--' are passed to xmenu (or CMD)\n```\n\n## Notes\n\n**Important:** Svg icons are supported since Imlib2 1.8.0. Thus, `xdg-xmenu` assumes that you have installed Imlib2 of at least that version. As a result, unlike the shell version, the svg icons are not converted to png anymore. If you don't have the required version of Imlib2, use the shell version instead.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fxlucn%2Fxdg-xmenu","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fxlucn%2Fxdg-xmenu","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fxlucn%2Fxdg-xmenu/lists"}
