# A window switcher, run dialog and dmenu replacement
# A window switcher, Application launcher and dmenu replacement
**Rofi** started as clone of simpleswitcher, written by [Sean Pringle](http://github.com/seanpringle/simpleswitcher) a
popup window switcher roughly based on [superswitcher](http://code.google.com/p/superswitcher/).
Simpleswitcher laid the foundations and therefor Sean Pringle deserves most of the credit for this tool. **Rofi**,
renamed as it lost the *simple* property, has been extended with extra features, like a run-dialog, ssh-launcher and
can act as a drop-in dmenu replacement, making it a very versatile tool.

**Rofi**, like dmenu, will provide the user with a textual list of options where one or more can be selected.
This can either be, running an application, selecting a window or options provided by an external script.
