I don't think you want to have one large menu with all thousands of commands found in /usr/bin and similar places. You probably want to organize them somehow, and this is a distribution specific thing. Script fvwm-menu-desktop is designed for such work although it does not automate the prefix searching, this may be done with a separate wrapper. fvwm-menu-directory may be useful too with appropriate options passed. Both are installed on your system with man pages. Regards, Mikhael. -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
