# Andrej's dmenu
## Summary
Just a simple patched version of dmenu. The first patch is a simple ```border``` patch with ability to set the border width from shell script and the second patch is the ```xyz``` patch, which adds commands to set the coordinates.
## Installation
clone the repository and run:
```bash
make install
```
## How I use it
My personal prefference is to have dmenu opened as a list, positioned in the center, but slightly to the left:
```
|‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾|
| |
| |
| |‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾| |
| |dmenu | |
| |___________| |
| |
| |
|_______________________________|
```
So the command I usually bind to a key is:
```bash
dmenu_run -l 10 -bw 8 -x 500 -y 800 -w 1400 -nf "#bbbbbb" -sb "#18815f" -sf "#eeeeee"
```
