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 .directory
     files found on the system, but ignores any .menu  files.	Instead  of  the
     structure	specified  in the .menu file, it simply maps each ".desktop" ap-
     plication onto one of the ".directory" categories.  If a matching	".direc-
     tory" category does not exist, it tries to cross-reference "additional cat-
     egories"  to  "related  categories"  in  accordance with the XDG menu-spec.
     This is a generic approach which avoids Desktop Environment 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
