[OC] XFiles: A modular X11 file browser (WIP)
It does not have a context menu. Instead, it uses a script set in the $XFILES_CONTEXTCMD environment variable. This script must call xmenu, pmenu, thingmenu, jgmenu, or any other mouse-controllable menu; and gets as argument the paths to selected files.

Is there a way to add widgets to your menu?
Another not centric way, but simple and fast is xmenu, which allows to use simple scripting for each row (common for any WMs): * https://github.com/phillbush/xmenu

[Patch Idea] Right Click Behavior Like in Original FVWM?
here you go this is exactly what you want. You could reimplement this in your build or follow the suckless philosophy and use this tool.

Where all the menu entries?
xmenu https://github.com/phillbush/xmenu and generate with xdg-xmenu https://github.com/OliverLew/xdg-xmenu, I like this style and configuration of it. It is not in lua, but idea and concept is suckless.

Asking about can your software support RTL
Haven't tried this one since dmenu works for me, but I think xmenu might have better support for it. It's not as suckless but honestly dealing with multiple languages sucks lol

I wrote 91menu, a better 9menu (?).
Nice. I also wrote a popup menu utility that has the same input-to-output interface as dmenu. But mine is a little more bloated: it supports input from keyboard, nested menus, icons and label/command separation.

How does DWM manage menus?
Have a look into dmenu, rofi and xmenu. They are all good at different things. The first two are keyboard driven and support a basic application menu by default. Xmenu is more like a context menu. For the most part you create the menus yourself with scripts. You can pipe stuff into their stdin and get the selected entry via stdout. Here is an example of what I use for my dwm build.

What is the appeal of the 'start menu' in so many desktop environments?
You'll probably like rofi.

Possible to filter clipboard when using `unamedplus`?
Also, I use this script so that Rofi will show my clipboard instead of the native klipper UI (because it's far less keyboard friendly). Normally the script works great, but the script chokes whenever I `dd` an empty line or a lone `\`, putting an empty entry on my clipboard, which the wrapper than assumes means I'm at the end of the list of clipboard entries.

Rofi dry run
Which rofi you run? The original one from https://github.com/davatorium/rofi (which is Xorg base, so it has to start XWayland) or the Wayland-based fork on https://github.com/lbonn/rofi?

What's your recommended launcher app in your opinion?
I like rofi (super flexible, i also use it as a custom alt-tab option in openbox) and wofi is a nice option on wayland

xfce workplace switcher in polybar
Modi are covered in the documentation. They set what Rofi displays in its window. You can run Rofi from a keybind, or a module in Polybar, or by using click handlers. Extremely extensible and versatile. And a shit ton of fun to theme. :)
-
A sensible NixOS Xfce desktop configuration
xwinmosaic: Having tried XMonad.Actions.GridSelect in the past, I found the 2-dimensional grid more confusing than useful because you cannot intuit where it would lay things out. I find Rofi to be more usable for window switching because it prioritizes text filtering. https://github.com/davatorium/rofi
