1 # xresources 2 3 Runtime configuration using X Resources. 4 5 ## Description 6 7 This patch adds Xresources support to dmenu. At startup, dmenu reads the 8 relevant X resources and applies them at runtime. A declarative array defines 9 the resources, making the patch easy to extend with more settings. 10 dmenu recognizes the following resources by default: 11 12 - `dmenu.font`: font or font set 13 - `dmenu.prompt`: prompt string 14 - `dmenu.background`: normal background color 15 - `dmenu.foreground`: normal foreground color 16 - `dmenu.backgroundSel`: selected background color 17 - `dmenu.foregroundSel`: selected foreground color 18 - `dmenu.backgroundOut`: output background color 19 - `dmenu.foregroundOut`: output foreground color 20 - `dmenu.topbar`: position of dmenu at top (1) or bottom (0) 21 - `dmenu.lines`: number of lines for vertical display 22 23 Values set in Xresources override those in config.h. Command line 24 arguments take precedence over both. 25 26 ## Download 27 28 - [dmenu-xresources-4.9.diff](./dmenu-xresources-4.9.diff) (2020/05/24) 29 - [dmenu-xresources-alt-5.0.diff](./dmenu-xresources-alt-5.0.diff) (2021/04/15) 30 - [dmenu-xresources-20260510-7175c48.diff](./dmenu-xresources-20260510-7175c48.diff) 31 32 ## Authors 33 34 - Michał Lemke - @melek on [Bitbucket](https://bitbucket.org/melek/dmenu2/) 35 - Pratik Bhusal (4.9 port) 36 - Nihal Jere <nihal@nihaljere.xyz> (20200302) 37 - Francesco Minnocci <ad17fmin@uwcad.it> (command line parameters fix) 38 - Vadim Zyamalov (alt-5.0) 39 - Justinas Grigas <dev@jstnas.com> (20260510)
