Rofi dry run

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.

is there a word-to-latex converter?
I wrote my own web based LaTeX editor I can use if I want access to my LaTeX files from a different computer, something I never would have been able to do if I hadn't learned how the pieces work together (though I actually use neovim over ssh more often).
