Assuming of course there is anything lacking with it. This sort of thing *should* be done using perl, as far as FVWM is concerned, rather than C. I wouldn't object to a clean-up of fvwm-menu-desktop though. It will need doing at some point. :) I thought at first this was going to hold up the 2.6.3 release of FVWM, but I see now it won't. -- Thomas Adam -- It was the cruelest game I've ever played and it's played inside my head. -- Hush The Warmth, Gorky's Zygotic Mynci.
FVWM: dynamic xdg menus
Hi, List Please look at program i wrote for creating dynamic xdg menus in fvwm. http://pastebin.com/TmhLRFfp This program creates menus with icons and localized names. Each submenu is a dynamic menu creates with DynamicPopupAction. System icons caches in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fvwm, so this path mus be added to fvwm's ImagePath Program runs as fvwmmenu [-s SIZE] [-t TERM] MenuName [/Path/To/Submenu] Parameter '-s' sets the size of cached icons. By default size of icons for menu from gtk settings is used. '-t' sets the command for terminal emulator. By default it is sets to xterm. Terminal command must understand '-e' parameter for launching applications. MenuName is a case-insensitive menu name, for example Applications or Settings. Special menu name Recent create menu for recently opened files. Optional argument /Path/To/Submenu specifies only one submenu to create. For example, command 'fvwmmenu Applications /Development' create only Development menu for Applications. Program requires gtk+ and gnome-menus. Hope it will be useful not only for me. Any comments or suggestions are very appreciated. -- Victor Ananjevsky anana...@gmail.com

Any comments or suggestions are very appreciated. Won't compile here: home pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0 libgnome-menu Package libgnome-menu was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgnome-menu.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libgnome-menu' found Running FC15. Not sure what your version does, I haven't looks closely. Any reason you decided not to use or enhance fvwm-menu-desktop? -- Dan Espen
