dmenu not working?
There are replacements for dmenu: standard is wofi (https://hg.sr.ht/~scoopta/wofi), but it has slightly less functionality (although many people live with it just fine), or there is port of rofi (https://github.com/lbonn/rofi), which is much more capable (you need this fork, the original rofi is X-only). Both of these are packaged in most Linux distributions.

I created a full POSIX sh menu.
I suggest a name change, so your smenu, isn't confused with this smenu, which is a totally different entity, can present the menus in columns, lines and tabular fashion, has hotkey support, and so much more, I don't know if it is POSIX compliant, but it can also be used with sh, and just not bash.
