Thanks for the patch! I'd never heard of this program but as someone who
uses dmenu a lot, I'd like to try it out.

Lines should be shorter than 80 characters whenever possible. `guix lint
rofi` should warn about this :)

The failing test (helper_expand) seems to fail when it can't find

I think that "Launcher" should not start with a capital letter.
