Unlike old dmenu approach, with library you don't have to feed unneccessary metadata into client program and parse the result.
|
|
|
|
|
Instead your program will be aware of the items and possible metadata inside the menu.
|
|
|
|
|
It's also possible to use multiple menus or dynamically remove/insert items.
