    [dmenu][PATCH] Options for position and width
    
    - add -x and -y options to set window position relative to the upper
      left of the target monitor (0 if one is not supplied with -m)
    - if option -b is used, the y offset is computed from the bottom
    - add -w option to set the window width

+Position and width
+==================
+
+The patch adds options for setting window position and width.
+
+* The '-x' and '-y' options set the window position on the target monitor (0 if one is not supplied with '-m')
+* If option '-b' is used, the y offset is computed from the bottom
+* The '-x' and '-y' accept negative values
+* The '-w' option sets the window width
