Awesome 4.x port #1

Closed samis closed 7 years ago

This plguin does not work on Awesome 4.0 due to menu_gen.generate becoming async and taking a callback, and while I have tinkered a bit with the source I have failed to fix it myself. Using awesome with only the regular menubar works, but it would be nice to have a non-bar applications window.

If you want a temporary solution, here is my modified menu.lua which takes some extra arguments of items before and after the freedesktop menu and returns an awful.menu.

I've included a usage example down the bottom.

At the current state, this is the best we can do.

When the menubar refactoring will be complete, I'll update this module accordingly.

Thanks for the patch @BlueUsername .
