name, others want to include the field with the tooltip text. In this release you can now set what fields are used for
matching for both the drun as window browser.
`-drun-match-fields` *field1*,*field2*,...
When using drun, match only with the specified Desktop entry fields.
The different fields are:
* **name**: the application's name
* **generic**: the application's generic name
* **exec**: the application's executable
* **categories**: the application's categories
* **comment**: the application comment
* **all**: all of the above
Default: *name,generic,exec,categories*
`-window-match-fields` *field1*,*field2*,...
When using window mode, match only with the specified fields.
The different fields are:
* **title**: window's title
* **class**: window's class
* **role**: window's role
* **name**: window's name
* **desktop**: window's current desktop
* **all**: all of the above
Default: *all*
### Pass extra properties in script mode
As a first step in improving script mode, support for passing properties where added.
You can now, from the script, set the `prompt`, a `message`, if the row contain `markup` and `active`, `urgent`.
For example to set the prompt from a bash mode script:
```bash
echo -en "\x00prompt\x1ftesting\n"
```
or to mark the first 4 rows urgent and add message:
```bash
echo -en "\x00urgent\x1f0-3\n"
echo -en "\0message\x1fSpecial <b>bold</b> message\n"
```
The `urgent` and `active` syntax is identical to the dmenu commandline argument.
### Negated matching
The matching engine has been extended so, part of, queries can be negated. Searching for `terminal -vim` will list all
fields that match `terminal` but do not contain `vim`.
The matching engine has been extended so, part of, queries can be negated. Searching for `deconz -sh` will list all
fields that match `deconz` but do not contain `sh`.

This is a controversial one, being the cause of heated issues in the past. The prompt string of rofi is now left
unmodified. Themes, like the default theme, can re-add the colon if desired.
