Show menu on signal #41

Could xmenu be configured to run in the background, displaying the menu on SIGUSR1, or some other signal?

Unfortunately that cannot be done that easily and would require non trivial changes. You can use xdo or xdotool to perform a right click on the root window and get the same effect.
