wmmenugen - Window Maker PropList menu generator
Contents
Bugs
If you get the exit status 3 with the unclear error message about unprocessedlevelsonthestack, you
encountered a limitation of wmmenugen. It would be a good idea to prepare an archive with the files
incriminated and submit them to the mailing list (wmaker-dev@googlegroups.com) with you command line, so
the team can work on improving the behaviour of the program on this case.
Description
wmmenugen generates a menu in the PropList format for Window Maker from the input file fspec. In the
case where fspec is a directory instead of a file, then wmmenugen will read all the files present in the
hierarchy of this directory.
Name
wmmenugen - Window Maker PropList menu generator
Options
--help, -h
print a help message with the list of options
-parser

Parsers
wmmenugen supports these file formats for input files:
wmconfig
the format of the menu generation tool for X of the same name
xdg the format of the menu specification as defined by the FreeDesktop standard, currently at version
1.1
Return Value
The exit status from the wmmenugen command provides information for the caller:
0 when the PropList menu was successfully generated on stdout.
1 when a fspec caused a problem (non readable file, ...)
2 the arguments of the command line where not recognised
3 the program met an unexpected menu structure; you probably want to look at the section BUGS below.
