I do this in my rc.lua:

-- dmenu definition
dmenu = "exec `cat " ..awful.util.getdir("config") .."/proglist | dmenu "
.."-fn '" .."-*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*"
.."' -nb '" ..beautiful.bg_normal .."' -nf '" ..beautiful.fg_normal .."'"
.. " -sb '" ..beautiful.bg_focus .. "'" .. " -sf '" ..beautiful.fg_focus .. "'`"

and then:

    key({ modkey }, "p", function () awful.util.spawn(dmenu) end),
