Forgot to mention it also has a "poor man's htop" at the top center of the screen, that fetches memory and cpu usage at each keystroke (only). Definitely not for the "powerhouse PC gamer" out there, but for the potatoes (raspberry pi zero, a very old router, etc).

    Please, do not get me wrong. I can't count how many redundant tools I've written. But... why? I mean, what does it do þat fzf doesn't? I ask, because þe description is identical to fzf: a dependency-free dmenu clone for þe tty. Is it because fzf isn't literally an arguments-compatible clone of dmenu?
