Sorry that I forgot about to post it here on the list. The script is online at http://git.noone.org/?p=ratpoison.git;a=blob;f=ratpoison-interactive-window-list.pl Should work with ratmenu as well as ratmen (see the last few lines). Since ratmenu has now UTF-8 support, too, I'm back on ratmenu. > Will contain some dmenu-based stuff, too. All other stuff is here: http://git.noone.org/?p=ratpoison.git;a=tree I use the dmenu as application menu (dmenu-abe.{pl,rc}). The standard dmenu which offers all commands in the current $PATH is also implemented in my setup (dmenu-for-ratpoison.sh -- not a good name in retroperspective), but I more or less never use it. Includes also my ratpoisonrc, my xmobarrc and my i3statusrc. It's basically all I need for my netbook desktop.

Yeah, that's always useful. > (I'm back from ratmen to ratmenu since Axel Beckert backported > rubikitch's UTF-8 patch for ratmen to ratmenu -- thanks, Axel! thanks, > rubikitch!) Glad to hear that I wasn't the only one who wanted that. :-) I feel that this made ratmen mostly obsolote. IMHO the UTF-8 patch by rubikitch was the only real advantage of ratmen over the still actively maintained ratmenu.
