dmenu is a fast and lightweight dynamic menu launcher for X.
It can be compared to 'Quicksilver' on OS X, or 'Launchy' on Windows.
With a quick keystroke, the dmenu menu appears, enabling you to type the name of a program you wish to start.
- "ArchWiki"
but this <dmenu> is not original one. it's called dmenu-vxhd(vertical+xft+history+dockapp).

When you are in the homescreen and the slide keyboard is open ,
pushing Swap Key (ESC) would pop up dmenu's window.

Files :
<del>maemodmenuhelper_vxhd4.0+0.0.1_armel.deb</del>
maemodmenuhelper_vxhd4.0+0.0.2_armel.deb
dmenu-vxhd-src-4.0.tar.gz

Install :
use 'dpkg -i' as root.

Uninstall :
use 'dpkg -r' as root.

Tips :
  • to add items to the menu, put txt files in /usr/share/dmenu-helper/list. Name and Exec field shoud be written in them. (ex: top.desktop , included in the package)
    Code:
    Name=top
    Exec=osso-xterm -e top
  • to change dmenu's appearance , edit $DMENU_OPTS in </usr/bin/dmenu_maemo_main.sh>.
    see also dmenu.man.txt
  • Dillo(and maemodillohelper) users,by editing and uncommenting a part of </usr/bin/dmenu_maemo_main.sh>, you can start googling by Dillo in 2 seconds from dmenu.


    Code:
    #if test `echo $APPName | grep -c g:` -gt 0
    #then
    #dillo.maemo "http://www.google.com/search?q=`echo $APPName | cut -d: -f 2- | tr ' ' \+`&sa=2" &
    #exit
    #fi
    also , you can use tear.(replace "dillo.maemo" with "tear")
