What Is obmenugen
obmenugen is a flexible, easy to use and (really) fast static/dinamic menu generator for the Openbox Window Manager. It's written in the D programming language.
Features
- Generates a full menu using the information present in *.desktop files (with static content or dinamically generated).
- No dependencies (it is statically compiled in a ~370K binary)
- In a relative modest machine with ~200 *.desktop files it generates the full menu in ~90ms. In mine's it takes 12-19ms.
- Very configurable and simple to use.
- Support to exclude menu items throught a really simple (but confortable and powerfull enough) regular expressions subset.
- Support to exlude menu item based on the directive OnlyShowIn present in *.desktop files.
- Easy access to edit OpenBox and obmenugen configuration files through a submenu.
