rofið

rofið is a dynamic menu replacement for dmenu, designed for users of tiling window managers and other highly customizable desktop environments. It offers a wide array of features beyond simple application launching, including the ability to switch between windows, run custom scripts, and manage SSH connections. Its flexibility allows users to tailor its appearance and behavior to their specific needs and preferences.

One of rofið's key advantages is its speed and efficiency. It is written in C and optimized for performance, making it responsive even with a large number of applications or windows. This is particularly beneficial for users who prefer keyboard-centric workflows and seek to minimize mouse usage.

rofið supports multiple modes, each serving a distinct purpose. The 'drun' mode provides a rofi-aware application launcher, often considered a more user-friendly alternative to traditional dmenu. The 'window' mode allows for quick switching between open windows, while the 'ssh' mode facilitates easy connections to remote servers. Users can also define custom modes to integrate with their personal scripts and workflows.

Customization is a cornerstone of rofið's design. It can be configured through a dedicated configuration file, allowing users to change themes, keybindings, and various other parameters. This extensive customization potential makes rofið a powerful tool for users who aim to create a highly personalized and efficient computing experience, especially within minimalist or keyboard-driven environments.
