Ask HN: Cool dmenu-driven script ideas?

2 points

5 years ago

dmenu [1] is a suckless utility which is often used as a "front-end" for bash scripts in keyboard-driven workflows.

Example use cases are launching applications [2], `kill -9`ing processes [3], and even inserting emojis [4].

What interesting scripts or ideas have the HN community integrated dmenu with?
