NAME
       jgmenu-pmenu - generate jgmenu flavoured	CSV menu data

SYNOPSIS
       jgmenu_run pmenu	[-h | -help] [-append-file <FILE>]
			[-prepend-file <FILE>] [-locale	<LOCALE>]

DESCRIPTION
       Generates  jgmenu flavoured CSV menu data based on .desktop and .direc-
       tory files found	on the system, but ignores any .menu  files.   Instead
       of  the	structure  specified  in  the  .menu file, it simply maps each
       ".desktop" application onto one of the ".directory" categories.	 If  a
       matching	".directory" category does not exist, it tries to cross-refer-
       ence "additional	categories" to "related	categories" in accordance with
       the XDG menu-spec.  This	is a generic approach which avoids Desktop En-
       vironment  specific  rules  defined in the .menu	file.  It ensures that
       all .desktop files are included in the menu.

       The root	menu is	appended/prepended by the contents  of	the  following
       files if	they exist:

        ~/.config/jgmenu/append.csv

        ~/.config/jgmenu/prepend.csv
