     20 When `-vi` is passed `Esc` will now put you into `normal mode` instead of
     21 quitting `dmenu`.
     22 
     23 Customization
     24 -------------
     25 This patch defines two `Key` structs made up of a `KeySym` and `ModMask`.
     26 
     27 The first is a single `Key` variable `global_esc` set to `{ XK_n, Mod1Mask }`. 
     28 
     29 The second is an array variable `quit_keys`. These keys will be used to quit
     30 `dmenu` when using `vi_mode`. If `-vi` was passed this will be the only way to
     31 quit `dmenu` besides using `C-c`.
     32 
     33 Set `vi_mode` in `config[.def].h` to `1` to enable `vi_mode` wherever you use
     34 `dmenu`. This will not change the behavior of `Esc`. Instead  your key defined
     35 under `global_esc` will be respected. This is useful as you don't have to change
     36 all your scripts to include the `-vi` flag.  `vi_mode` is set to `1` by default.
     37 
     38 Set `start_mode` to `1` if you want to start in `normal mode` when the `-vi`
     39 flag is passed.  Set to `0` by default so that you start in `insert mode`.
     40 
     41 There is a new color scheme included in this patch.  It is an inversion of 
     42 `SchemeNorm` called `SchemeCursor`
