term-dmenu evaluates output #2

Open calbrecht opened 2 years ago

This is a stripped down version with abduco and stderr redirects removed, but basically the same as term-dmenu.

export input='$(echo hi, i get evaluated)'; dash -c 'output=$(echo "$input" | fzf); export output; dash -c "echo \"$output\""'

I noticed this behaviour when using rg output as input to fzf in term-dmenu.

Yes, I was looking for this fix. It would also be cool to make j4-dmenu-desktop optional in the sense that it'll be used if it exists.

@calbrecht Would it also be possible to use bash instead of dash? Bash is in pretty much all systems I use so if possible I would like to avoid installing dash.
