Just a plain and simple terminal powermenu for Linux, written in Python with ncurses library, inspired by ncmpcpp command window.

For now, this script only work with xfce4 Dekstop Environment (DE).

But it should be easy enough to adjust the script a bit to make it works on your desired environment.

1. Create the directory ~/.local/bin:

cd .local
mkdir bin

2. Copy the (raw text of) powermenu script in this repository, then:

vim ~/.local/bin/powermenu
# You may use other text editor that you prefer

Paste the script in that file

3. Type chmod u+x ~/.local/bin/powermenu
4. For the script to be used system-wide, instead of being able to only execute it while you were in the specific directory right above, you need to put it on PATH:

• If you use bash or/and zsh shell, paste in either .bashrc or/and .zshrc: export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH". Finally, exit, then re-enter the terminal.
• If you use fish shell, paste this line in ~/.config/fish/config.fish: set -gx PATH $HOME/.local/bin $PATH. Then exit and re-enter the terminal.
