Hi fellow suckless people! The attached patch adds mouse support to dmenu.
Disclaimer: this patch isn't meant to be included for upstream dmenu
since I understand most people won't like mouse support for dmenu and
thats OK. Maybe someone might find this useful :)
Mouse actions supported:
Left-mouse click:
* On prompt and input field: clear input text and selection.
* In horizontal and vertical mode on item: select and output item
(same as pressing enter).
* In horizontal mode on arrows: change items to show left or right.
Right-mouse click: close.
Middle-mouse click:
* Paste current selection.
* While holding shift: paste primary selection.
Scroll up:
* In horizontal mode: same as left-clicking on left arrow.
* In vertical mode: show items above.
Scroll down:
* In horizontal mode: same as left-clicking on right arrow.
* In vertical mode: show items below.
The attached patch applies cleanly to latest dmenu 4.5 tip
(dec9a28863f388072be105e0950deb72ac719d48).
Kind regards,
