I have a problem with i3 (dmenu) and appImages

General Linux Question
1

Hi everybody, I created a folder in my home and put inside of it some appImages (yes they are executable).

Since I’m using i3 as a wm and dmenu to launch applications I tried to add my appImages folder to PATH in order to be able to launch them through dmenu.

To do it I used this guide and it worked since by trying echo $PATH I can see my folder.

But still I can’t find the appImages through dmenu. Does anybody have a clue of what I could be missing?

I have never used dmenu but it sounds kind of neat.

Here is a reddit topic on using dmenu with appimages. Hope that helps.
