My dmenu scripts

website

dmenu is a simple program with a pretty selection window for X. These are my scripts for doing things with that.

• dbc: do bc -l on the input so you can do math
• dbrowsel: select a browser for the link in the clipboard to open
• dcpupower: select CPU throttling settings
• dkeymap: select a keymap
• dintelbacklight: select backlight with dmenu or wjt (a scroll wheel)
• ddmenu: use dmenu to select a dmenu script -- dception
• dmenu_run/dsudo: run programs, maybe from a keybind set with xbindkeys or a wm
• dmenupass: ask for the sudo password as SUDO_ASKPASS
• dmount/dunmount: mount/unmount drives
• dopenrc-runlevel: choose openrc runlevels for various advanced tasks like networking
• drssadd: add RSS links to the newsboat config from clipboad
• dshow: run a command and show output without having to open a terminal
• dsysact: reboot/shutdown/etc.
• dtimer: a coffee timer. Check out uniformativ.de's countty for a non-dmenu one.
• dtmpl: copy template files from a directory into the clipboard
• passmenu: unix pass interface, copies to clipboard.
• passmenu-otp: like passmenu but copies the OTP code to clipboard.
• y-or-n: ask if yes or no

• dmodurl: change a URL in the clipboard according to sed rules
• dpatchmail: do (code) patches with dmenu
• dsad: manage background audio with Simple Audio Daemon
• prompt-mail: manage your email contacts list (neomutt compatible)
• sbm: manage your bookmarks list
• tnon: like tmux but not (using mtm and abduco)

You could do:

alias program='SUDO_ASKPASS=dgivepass sudo -A program'

but it won't come up in dmenu_run. So move program to program-aux and make a new script at program:

#!/bin/sh
SUDO_ASKPASS=dgivepass sudo -A program

• intel-backlight: uninformativ.de's intel-backlight script
