@ -9,26 +9,7 @@ By default nenu takes input from stdin and display it to the user in a vertical
list. The user then types which reduces the list to those that match. Once the
user presses return nenu exits and prints what was typed to stdout.
The last non-flag argument given is used as the header.
Avaliable flags are -a, -c, -n and -e.
-a: exit as soon as there is only one match.
-c: on exit return the match at the begining of the list. If there is no match
nenu returns the user input.
-n: no input is taken and the -c flag is set. This is useful if you want to use
nenu to show the user something but take no input.
-e: takes no input from stdin, nenu become a text input box.
-p x,y: opens the window at x,y rather than mouse coords.
-ap: don't shift the window so it stays inside the screen.
Putting that togther, try:
# ls | ./nenu "pick a file: " -a -c
Check out the man page.
Look in nexec, ntime and nwindow for examples of use. These are useable scripts
in their own right.
