Hi, I am gls, a proud user of Awesome. I'm learning Lua as a new
language and it is very interesting and useful. I'm thinking of
switching to it completely from python in the near future. I am
absolutely happy with Awesome, it make me transform my wm in a
complete development environment supercharged with all the features I
need.
In the last year I managed to adapt it very well to me, and... viceversa.
But now I miss something I cant find: How to call a function from the
menu? If I try to call a custom function from menu, for example
ExecuteAndNotify("gvim", "Your editor is starting") it will be
executed immediately at Awesome start wich is not the intended
behaviour.
This is different to the behaviour of key presses, where an associated
function excute only on the specific key press.
It seems menu was conceived only to spawn processes passed in strings,
but for me the ability to execute arbitrary lua code would be best.
For sure it is already possible, but I can get it now.
