  28. .SH DESCRIPTION

  29. .B dmenu

  30. is a dynamic menu for X, originally designed for

  31. .BR dwm (1).

  32. It manages huge numbers of user\-defined menu items efficiently.

  33. .P

  34. dmenu reads a list of newline\-separated items from stdin and creates a menu.

  35. When the user selects an item or enters any text and presses Return, their

  36. choice is printed to stdout and dmenu terminates.

  37. .P

  38. .B dmenu_run

  39. is a dmenu script used by dwm which lists programs in the user's PATH and

  40. executes the selected item.

  41. .P

  42. .B dmenu_path
