      1 tidy

      4 Description
      5 -----------
      6 This patch introduces an easy way of reducing the amount of programs that are searched
      7 through and shown in dmenu by using $DMENU_PATH as the primary source of programs and $PATH
      8 as a fallback in case $DMENU_PATH is not configured. To configure the new environment variable
      9 put something like the following into your ~/.xinitirc for example:
     10 
     11     export DMENU_PATH="/home/${USER}/.local/bin"
     12 
     13 Please note, that even if you have $DMENU_PATH configured, programs must still be available
     14 in $PATH! A sensible way to achieve this would be via symlinks for example:
     15 
     16     ln -s /usr/bin/<program> ~/.local/bin/.
     17 
     18 Please also note, that this patch also gets rid of caching any applications, since I
     19 don't see any reason for it to be kept, especially since we are trying to tidy up.
