+======
+
+Description
+-----------
+This patch introduces an easy way of reducing the amount of programs that are searched
+through and shown in dmenu by using $DMENU_PATH as the primary source of programs and $PATH
+as a fallback in case $DMENU_PATH is not configured. To configure the new environment variable
+put something like the following into your ~/.xinitirc for example:
+
+    export DMENU_PATH="/home/${USER}/.local/bin"
+
+Please note, that even if you have $DMENU_PATH configured, programs must still be available
+in $PATH! A sensible way to achieve this would be via symlinks for example:
+
+    ln -s /usr/bin/<program> ~/.local/bin/.
+
+Please also note, that this patch also gets rid of caching any applications, since I
+don't see any reason for it to be kept, especially since we are trying to tidy up.
