Projektgeschichte

dmenu-mac was created as a macOS application launcher inspired by dmenu. The project focuses on fuzzy application search, a configurable global shortcut, multiple displays, and operation independent of Spotlight indexing.

Adoptionsgeschichte

The project is distributed as a macOS application and documents Homebrew installation, giving command-line-oriented Mac users a package-managed alternative to downloading an unsigned release manually.

Wie es verwendet wird

Open the application and press Command-Space to bring it forward, type an application name, and press Enter. The shortcut can be changed in the interface. Scripts can pipe newline-separated choices to the dmenu-mac executable and supply a prompt.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

dmenu-mac brings the keyboard-driven launcher style associated with Unix dmenu workflows to macOS while avoiding Spotlight indexing. Its standard-input pipe support also lets scripts use a native graphical chooser.
