I am an avid user of dmenu, it is absolutely fantastic, there's nothing as easy as pressing a key (or two) and then typing what I'm trying to launch, with autocompletion as well. I know a lot of DEs are incorporating a launch box in the menu directly, and I like the double utility but usually these menus are just too busy. A simple menu like the good ol gnome 2 days with a text box would be perfect, but alas this does not really exist, its either all or nothing. DWM though, having to compile it every time you want to change the configuration is too much.
