itemizer 1.1.2

Installation

First install dmenu, then:

pip install itemizer

Usage

itemizer_run

It accepts all the same command-line arguments as dmenu:

itemizer_run -f -i -nb “#222222” -nf “#bbbbbb” -sb “#005577” -sf “#eeeeee” -fn “--terminus-medium-r---16-------”

To customize the menu copy the [default itemizer.yaml file](itemizer/itemizer.yaml) to ~/.itemizer.yaml and edit it.

Itemizer is composed of two subcommands:

1. itemizer list prints a newline-separated list of all the keys from your items file to stdout, suitable for piping into dmenu.

2. itemizer show reads a key from stdin, looks up its value in your items file, and prints it to stdout. Pipe the output from dmenu into itemizer show, then pipe the ouput from itemizer show to sh.

Run itemizer -h for complete documentation of the options and subcommands.

[itemizer_run](bin/itemizer_run) is a shell script that ties itemizer list, dmenu, itemizer show and sh together, and that passes any command-line arguments that you pass it on to dmenu.
