6 This patch centers dmenu in the middle of the screen.
7
8 Previously this has been achieved through the [xyw
9 patch](//tools.suckless.org/dmenu/patches/xyw) and a bash script to calculate
10 the centered x and y positions. However, this is a slow and overly complex way
11 which is hard to integrate into programs which call dmenu directly, eg surf or
12 tabbed. On the other hand, This small standalone patch is instantaneous and
13 works globally.

15 With `dmenu-center-20200111-8cd37e1.diff`, you can use _-c_ to center dmenu.
16
17 With `dmenu-center-20240616-36c3d68.diff`, you can not only center dmenu
18 but also adjust its height.
