Hi there :-)
I would like to configure this package for use with my i3wm and I can do so to a degree.
The program has two files that I can edit:
/usr/bin/dmenfm
/usr/bin/autoprogramselect
Any changes I make to 'autoprogramselect' take immediately. This makes it so I can choose what applications open images, video, etc..
The 'dmenfm' file changes nothing. Here is is the section I wanted to change:
function defaults {
show_hidden=0
show_backup=0
always_open_files=0
always_open_dirs=0
open_last=1
dmenu_caseinsens=1
dmenu_onbottom=1
dmenu_bg='#000000'
dmenu_fg='#9999CC'
dmenu_sbg='#000066'
dmenu_sfg='#FFFFFF'
executor='autoprogramselect'
editor='xterm -e vim'
filemanager='xterm -d'
}
As a test I changed 'show_hidden' to a '1' but nothing happened, not even after a reboot.
If anyone has any idea what is happening, that would be awesome.
Thanks for reading and I am looking forward to finding an answer :-)

You're editing the built-in defaults. Edit the config file instead. Or reset to defaults after modifying those, but if you start editing the script, you might as well remove anything related to the config file and hardcode the settings.

As far as I can tell, there are only 3 files to choose from:
$pacaur -Qlq dmenfm
/usr/
/usr/bin/
/usr/bin/autoprogramselect
/usr/bin/dmenfm
/usr/share/
/usr/share/dmenfm/
/usr/share/dmenfm/plugins/
/usr/share/dmenfm/plugins/browser/
/usr/share/dmenfm/plugins/browser/RecursiveSearch
The 'autoprogramselect' file is editable but that's for selecting programs for files.
I even tried $makepkg -s and edited the file before building but still same affect.
There is no documentation man or -h and I don't know how to find the configuration file.
Sorry about this, I'm just new and still learning.
Thanks for your response.
