The inspiration comes from Geir T. Kristiansen's 'genmenu' shell script (http://gtk.no/genmenu) which I have been hapilly using for the last 9 years or so. That script generates the Window Maker menu by asking a few questions and checks whether the applications in a predefined list exist in the user's $PATH, so that the menu contains only the applications which are guaranteed to exist and which the user cares about. However I always thought it was a bit slow to finish, even when having a file containing the answers to the questions to be piped in. And as Kristiansen states in his webpage, his script does not support internationalization: "If you want internationalization I really suggest you rewrite genmenu from scratch anyway in a more sensible language and remove other limitations while you are at it." so I decided to rewrite in C and make it support internationalization (only English and German so far). While I am not sure yet if I removed "other limitations while you are at it" I definitely made it finish faster. This C program does not make you questions though. But in the same spirit as the author of 'genmenu', who says: "Genmenu is a hack, deal with it, it just happens to serve my needs." I present you 'wmgenmenu', which you can use like this: wmgenmenu > /home/mafra/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu and the menu is automatically generated from the list of predefined apps which are contained in the C sources (wmgenmenu.h). And when you generate the WMRootMenu as above, wmaker will automatically load the new menu for you (due to the 'inotify' mechanism in wmaker-crm). As for 'wmgenmenu' being faster than 'genmenu': [mafra@Pilar:~]$ time ./genmenu.sh < answers.txt &> /dev/null real 0m3.626s user 0m0.968s sys 0m1.830s [mafra@Pilar:~]$ time wmgenmenu &> /dev/null real 0m0.020s user 0m0.006s sys 0m0.013s
