Basic customization

Using rofi instead of dmenu

It may be the case that you are more comfortable with rofi, and not with dmenu.

rofi is a launcher which is inspired on dmenu, but has many more useful features, such as a window switcher and visual themes.

To use rofi, just add the following lines to your configuration file. You might need to tweak rofi’s binary path to match your system’s:

(setf *launcher-command* "/usr/bin/rofi")
(setf *launcher-rofi-emulate-dmenu* t)

It may also look weird to have rofi on the bottom of your screen. If you wish to display rofi in the middle of screen, just add this line as well:

(setf *launcher-on-bottom* nil)
