I don't see the point in enabling two different keys for the same thing. > - mouse wheel act as left/right keys too > - mouse left click activates the selected word > - mouse right click closes dmenu (like <ESC>) I don't see much sense in this proposal for several reasons. First of all dmenu is designed for keyboard input. Second, your proposal would make it necessary to check the pointer position on release every time and calculating the right item under the pointer. This will introduce some bloat, at least yet another 100 LOC, which seems to be too much overkill. Also, such thing might introduce new cornercases and so new bugs. > dwm: > - mouse wheel on tags allows to change between "desktops" (without having to > click) This is not possible, simply because there is no previous or next tag.

But your last three proposals seem to be the only ones, which might be considered useful and minor improvements. All others, esp. the dmenu-related proposals seem to be overhead - simply because dmenu is keyboard-driven by design. > What i don't know how to do is how to emulate alt+click options (move and > resize) or > how to zoom a window (alt+intro) without using the keyboard. (I really love > these > two actions x) There is no way to resize/move windows without the keyboard. The only solution would implementing a builtin menu and do it like 9wm, but honestly, this would mean more bloat, so I don't like it. To your gestures proposal, - I don't like mouse gestures, they are too sloppy for my taste. Regards, -- Anselm R. Garbe >< http://www.suckless.org/ >< GPG key: 0D73F361
