OPTIONS

20       --dmenu=<command>
21              Determines  the  command used to invoke dmenu Executed with your
22              shell ($SHELL) or /bin/sh
23
24       --use-xdg-de
25              Enables reading $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP to  determine  the  desktop
26              environment
27
28       --display-binary
29              Display binary name after each entry (off by default)
30
31       --no-generic
32              Do not include the generic name of desktop entries
33
34       --term=<command>
35              Sets the terminal emulator used to start terminal apps
36
37       --usage-log=<file>
38              Must point to a read-writeable file (will create if not exists).
39              In this mode entries are sorted by usage frequency.
40
41       --wait-on=<path>
42              Must point to a path where a file can be created.  In this  mode
43              no  menu  will be shown. Instead the program waits for <path> to
44              be written to (use echo > path). Every time this happens a  menu
45              will be shown.  Desktop files are parsed ahead of time.  Perfom‐
46              ing 'echo -n q > path' will exit the program.
47
48       --no-exec
49              Do not execute selected command, send to stdout instead
