Generate A Personal Menu
Here's a bash script that will generate a menu file ($HOME/.fluxbox/my_menu) which can be included in your fluxbox menu by putting this line somewhere in $HOME/.fluxbox/menu:
| Code Sample | | [include] (/home/dsl/fluxbox/my_menu) |
In its current state it just adds quick access to editing application config files and scripts, but i'm planning to expand it in the future.
You should edit the variables at the top of the file to reflect your prefered editor and paths.
| Code Sample | #!/bin/bash
# Generate a personal menu to add to your regular fluxbox menu.
# It is meant specifically for Damn Small Linux, but should work
# in most other systems.
#
# Insert this line into $HOME/.fluxbox/menu:
# [include] (MENUFILE)
# MENUFILE is listed below
#
# Changelog (yyyy-mm-dd)
# 2006-01-23: cleaned up and reorganized some code
# added some files
# 2006-01-20: first

NOTE: The "scripts" part currently works only with scripts that are executable and have filename extensions of sh, bash, tcl, pl, lua, or flua
