Compiz Boxmenu
==============
There are two ways to have an xdg menu in compiz-boxmenu. The first one,
auto-updates the menu, every time the menu is called. The second one,
updates the menu only when the user wants to.
Dynamic Menus
-------------
Edit your `~/.config/compiz/boxmenu/menu.xml` file with your favorite text
editor and add a block of code like this inside the root `<menu>` element:
<item type="launcher">
<command mode2="pipe">xdgmenumaker -nif compizboxmenu</command>
<icon>applications</icon>
<name>Applications</name>
</item>
Alternatively, you can also run `compiz-boxmenu-editor` and click the
dropdown for new menu files or menu items. Select launcher to create a
new launcher. Set the name of the launcher to whatever you want. This will
be the display name for the pipe menu. Then enter in:
xdgmenumaker -nif compizboxmenu
for the command entry. Click the combobox next to the command text box
and switch that to "Pipe".
Static Menus
------------
Edit your `~/.config/compiz/boxmenu/menu.xml` file with your favorite text
editor and paste the output of:
xdgmenumaker -if compizboxmenu
into `~/.config/compiz/boxmenu/menu.xml`.
Alternatively, you can also run `compiz-boxmenu-editor` and click the
button that says "Generate menu entries from a pipemenu script". In the dialog
box that pops up, type in:
xdgmenumaker -nif compizboxmenu
to append the statically generated menu to any menu file you want.
