[openbox] pipe menus

[Frank]

I am having great difficulty trying to use a pipe menu in  OpenBox.

I inserted the line the script suggested --

<menu execute="~/.config/openbox/scripts/sysinfo.sh" id="sysinfo-menu" label="SysInfo"/>

into menu.xml (by hand as the openbox menu editor doesn't have provisions for that
line.
But then the menu won't load. I suspect something is missing like an item
which is supposed to receive the piped information ??

Thanks
