# Usage: dmenu_run_systemd
#
# Start demnu to select program to execute, then start selected program in
# background.
#
# Usage: dmenu_run_systemd [Options] [--] <command> [<arg1>[, <arg2>[...]]]
#
# Start <command> with <arg1..N> without involving dmenu.
# E.g. in i3 config: `bindsym $mod+Return exec dmenu_run_systemd alacritty`.
#
# Options:
# -f, --forground Start <command> as forground task (default: no)
# -p, --pwd Use the current ${PWD} as working directory (default:
# ${HOME})
