iomenu ====== *iomenu* is an interactive menu inspired from dmenu [1]: it reads lines from stdin display them to the screen [1], and filter them as the user type. When `Enter` is pressed, the selected line is printed to stdout. This permits to build interactive menu with shell pipes. As an example, a poor man's music player could be done this way: $ find ~/music -name '*.flac' | iomenu | xargs mplayer It will print all the FLAC files in `~/music` to iomenu which shows a fulscreen menu, and the selected file will be printed to xargs mplayer. iomenu does not use ncurses but ansi escape sequences [2] instead so it does not have dependencies beyond a C compiler.
