NAME

   wmmenugen - Window Maker PropList menu generator

SYNOPSIS

   wmmenugen     [options...]      -parser=<name>     fspec     [fspec...]
   [-parser=<name> fspec [fspec...]...]

DESCRIPTION

   wmmenugen generates a menu in the PropList format for Window Maker from
   the  input  file fspec.  In the case where fspec is a directory instead
   of a file, then wmmenugen will  read  all  the  files  present  in  the
   hierarchy of this directory.

OPTIONS

   --help, -h
          print a help message with the list of options

   -parser
          specify the format of the file to be parsed

   --version
          print the version of Window Maker from which the program comes

PARSERS

   wmmenugen supports these file formats for input files:

   wmconfig
          the format of the menu generation tool for X of the same name

   xdg    the   format  of  the  menu  specification  as  defined  by  the
          FreeDesktop standard, currently at version 1.1

RETURN VALUE

   The exit status from the wmmenugen command provides information for the
   caller:

   0      when the PropList menu was successfully generated on stdout.

   1      when a fspec caused a problem (non readable file, ...)

   2      the arguments of the command line where not recognised

   3      the  program met an unexpected menu structure; you probably want
          to look at the section BUGS below.

BUGS

   If you get the exit status 3  with  the  unclear  error  message  about
   unprocessed  levels  on  the  stack,  you  encountered  a limitation of
   wmmenugen.  It would be a good idea to  prepare  an  archive  with  the
   files  incriminated  and  submit  them  to  the  mailing  list (wmaker-
   dev@lists.windowmaker.org) with you command line, so the team can  work
   on improving the behaviour of the program on this case.
