## Scripts
I'm using this script to launch MyMenu with custom item
EOF
```
-You can generate a menu from the `.desktop` file with something like
-this:
+You can generate a list of executables from `$PATH` like this:
``` shell
#!/bin/sh
-getname() {
- cat $1 | grep '^Name=' | sed 's/^.*=//'
-}
-
-getexec() {
- cat $1 | grep '^Exec=' | sed 's/^.*=//'
-}
-
-desktop_files=`ls /usr/local/share/applications/*.desktop`
-
-{
- for i in $desktop_files; do
- getname $i
- done
-} | mymenu "$@" | {
- read prgname
- for i in $desktop_files; do
- name=`getname $i`
- if [ "x$prgname" = "x$name" ]; then
- exec `getexec $i`
- fi
- done
-}
-```
-
-or generate a list of executables from `$PATH` like this:
-
-``` shell
-#!/bin/sh
-
path=`echo $PATH | sed 's/:/ /g'`
{
} | sort -f | /bin/sh -c "$(mymenu "$@")"
```
+You can, for example, select a song to play from the current queue (in mpd), with
+
+```shell
+fmt="%position% %artist% - %title%"
+if song=$(mpc playlist -f "$fmt" | mymenu -p "Song: " -A -d " "); then
+ mpc play $(echo $song | sed "s/ .*$//")
+fi
+```
+
Of course you can as well use the `dmenu_path` and `dmenu_run` scripts
that (usually) comes with `dmenu`.
