Version 1.4 is the latest,
http://reactor-core.org/~djw/ratmenu-1.4.tar.gz, iirc.

Well, executing a command with ratpoison -c is really fast, and
doesn't require too much memory, it is handled on the first couple of
paragraphs of `main'..

I think it would be an overkill to implement a method that would
implement scripting _in_ ratpoison. It's far easier and more
lightweight to do it this way, imho.

However, I like your script, it could be added to the contrib/
directory in cvs :)
