i3-hud-menu Provides a way to run menubar commands through dmenu.

You may now be asking, ‘What is a HUD and why should I care?’ A Heads-Up Display allows you to search through an application’s appmenu. So if you’re trying to find that single filter in GIMP but can’t remember which filter category it fits into or if you can’t recall if preferences sits under File, Edit or Tools on your favourite browser, you can just search for it rather than hunting through the menus.
