JGMENU-LX(1)

💖 JGMENU-LX 💖

okay bestie, welcome to jgmenu-lx — yes that's the whole name, manual section 1, she's a command, she's iconic, let's GO 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

jgmenu-lx — generate jgmenu flavoured CSV menu data 🍓

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

jgmenu_run lx

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. no flags, no drama, just vibes 💅

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so like, when you run jgmenu_run lx, she goes and generates jgmenu flavoured CSV menu data for all your freedesktop.org defined application menus 💖

and how does she do it? she uses LXDE's libmenu-cache, no cap. that's the whole magic trick ✨

🌈 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES 🌈

these are the little levers you can pull before you run her. she reads them from the environment, she respects them, she's a good listener 🫶

• XDG_MENU_PREFIX — you can use this to specify a .menu file, fr fr. for example, XDG_MENU_PREFIX=lxde- will load lxde-applications.menu 👑
• JGMENU_NO_DIRS — if this one is set, applications will be listed without a directory structure. flat. unbothered. no nesting energy 🧚
• JGMENU_NO_PEND — do not read append.csv or prepend.csv. like, at all. she's skipping them 🙈
• JGMENU_NAME_FORMAT — see csv_name_format in jgmenu(1) for the full tea ⭐

💀 KNOWN ISSUES 💀

xfce-applications.menu is not parsed correctly. she's not being mean, she just can't read it 😭
