i3-dmenu-file-opener

Super-short script to open files using dmenu in i3wm. The script will open dmenu in the current directory and give you a list of files and directories (with directories first). If you open a directory, dmenu will open again with a listing of that directory, and if it's something else - the script will open the file using xdg-open.

Bonus: It will also open hidden files and folders if you explicitly tell it to, and it will navigate the folder structure with '..'.

As requested by /u/the-pervert on reddit.

All arguments that are passed to the script are passed on to dmenu. I'd recommend these settings:

./dmenu_fo.sh -p "open file" -l 10 -i

And whatever font settings you normally use.
