These problems should now be a thing of the past.
**Note** the syntax for binding keys has slightly changed. The *Mod1*, *Mod2*, etc. keywords are no longer available.
There was no good way to detect how these keys where mapped and if they could be used as modifiers.
E.g. if the right alt (say *Mod3*) is configured to switch between layouts, it cannot work as modifier key to make a `Mod3-p` keybinding.
**Rofi** will now check if the current layout has the *SuperR*,*SuperL*,*AltGr*,*HyperL*,*HyperR* keys available.
If they are available they can be used for keybindings, if not, the user gets a warning.

### DMenu reading from stdin
**Rofi** used to have a custom `fgets` implementation that supported custom separators. The first version was
slow but got improved. Learning about the `getdelim` feature of POSIX '08, this is now used and is almost as fast as the latest custom implementation.
Overall this gave a speedup of 6x (from 648 ms for 202000 lines down to 108ms).

### Theme repository
This has been requested several times and rofi's website actually has a theming page. This however got outdated quickly and neither
the themes or the screenshots are correct anymore. The newly added rofi-themes git repository allows you to add themes easily:
Fork the repository and export your current color theme with **rofi -dump-xresources-theme**. Place it in the theme directory
of the repository and run the update script. This will automatically generate screenshots and update the page.
Update your fork and send a pull request. This way your theme will appear on official themes page, once it's merged.
