Description-en: Compiz Reloaded - daemon and clients providing pop-up menus
Boxmenu provides a number of different menus to the compositing window
manager Compiz and possibly to other window managers as well.
.
It is composed of a daemon that caches the different menus from various
sources, following desktop standards and a number of clients to ask
the daemon for a specific type of menu, clients that can be bound to
different key-chords and mouse events using the Compizconfig Settings
Manager.
.
The components are compiz-boxmenu, compiz-boxmenu-editor, a menu editor
and compiz-boxmenu-{daemon,dlist,dplist,vplist,wlist}, where the
specialized clients are respectively for recent documents, desktops,
viewports and windows.
