Usage

Mauncher comes with a launcher called mauncher-launcher, so running mauncher-launcher will start a launcher which lists desktop files, supports math (through a python interpreter), running shell commands by prefixing the string with a $, etc.

Otherwise, mauncher works like dmenu; give it a newline-separated list of strings on stdin, the user selects an item, and that item is printed to stdout.

Just as you would use dmenu_path | dmenu | sh to use dmenu as a launcher, you can use dmenu_path | mauncher | sh to use mauncher as a launcher.
