Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 488 by Longp...@gmail.com: new dmenu version breaks xmonad-contrib wrapper http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=488 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 title: new dmenu version breaks xmonad-contrib wrapper dmenu-4.4.1 appends a newline to the outputted string representing the selected item, breaking xmonad-contrib's dmenu wrapper, which expects no newline. I've attached a patch to fix this. It's backwards compatible with old versions of dmenu. I've only tested it directly with ``dmenuMap``. What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. run code: ``dmenuMap $ M.fromList [("k_x","v_x"),("k_y","v_y"),("k_z","v_z")]`` 2. choose "k_x" in the menu bar that pops up What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Return value should be ``Just "v_x"``. Actual value is ``Nothing``. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? reproduced on xmonad-contrib-0.10 and xmonad-contrib-0.9 with dmenu-4.4.1, worked with dmenu-4.2.1.
