Hello I am looking for the lastest (stable) version of Rofi, I believe it is 1.7.5? The version that ships with fossapup64-9.5 is 1.5.4.

TIA,
David Jackson

Compiles without much difficulty. Requires libxcb-ewmh which I have included in the package. Menu entries are in the Utility section. I don't really know how useful it is or if it is working as intended. I have not studied the usage details. Uploaded as .pet for testing, but obviously with no guarantees.

It helps you, if you tell members which build of PuppyOS you are using.

The instructions provided are fairly straightforward:

The difficulties only arise if you do not have the correct build tools/dependencies available to you in your OS.
