xl

the late lnd for Xorg
xl is a "dropdown" xorg item launcher
xl reads from $HOME/.xlrc to see what programs to display when opened.

usage

clicking on a entry in xl causes the entry printed to stdout, so it can be later piped to sh.

xlrc

xlrc ($HOME/.xlrc) is a file in which xl reads from. anything - as long as it works in your shell - can be put in it.

EMPTY in a xlrc file means the entry will be blank and unclickable.
if your line starts with !, it is a title.

example:

EMPTY
!tools
st
xd
!other
firefox
scrot
EMPTY
