NAME

       wmii9menu - The wmii menu program

SYNOPSIS

       wmii9menu [-a <address>] [-i <initial>] <item>[:<command>]...  wmii9menu -v

DESCRIPTION

       wmii9menu  is  wmii's  standard  clickable menu program. It's used extensively by wmii and
       related programs to display clickable menus, namely for window titlebars  and  bar  items.
       The  name,  along with the code, derives from the 9menu program, which in turn derives its
       name from Plan 9's style of clickable menus.

ARGUMENTS

       -a     The address at which to connect to wmii.

       -i <initial>

              If <initial> is listed among the other items on the command line, it is selected at
              startup,  and  the menu is positioned so that the mouse pointer is centered on said
              item.

       :

USAGE

       wmii9menu is invoked with a list of arguments, each of which is displayed as a menu  item.
       The  first  : in the item name, and any text following it, is stripped. The menu is opened
       such that the mouse pointer is centered on  the  selected  item.  If  a  mouse  button  is
       depressed  when the menu opens, then releasing it will confirm the selection. Otherwise, a
       mouse press will do the same. When a selection is made, wmii9menu prints  the  result.  If
       the  selected  item initially contained a :, the text following it is printed.  Otherwise,
       the item text itself is printed.

ENVIRONMENT

       $WMII_ADDRESS
              The address at which to connect to wmii.

       $NAMESPACE
              The namespace directory to use if no address is provided.
