If anyone has interest, here is the dmenu script I made for XBPS which saved a bunch of aliases and typing xbps-etc,etc

ASSUMPTIONS //
void linux
dmenu installed
xtools install (for xpkg)
void-src packages set up if you want to use the src-build option
Of note: ~/.local/src/void-packages is the location I have set -- adjust if yours is in home directory or elsewhere

#!/bin/bash

src="./xbps-src pkg"

src_build () {
    cd ~/.local/src/void-packages && git pull
    choice="$(/usr/bin/ls -Alh ~/.local/src/void-packages/srcpkgs | dmenu -p "Choose one: ")"
    cd ~/.local/src/void-packages
    setsid -f "$TERMINAL" -e "$src" "$choice"
    xi "$choice" 
}

rem_pkg () {
    choice="$(xpkg | dmenu -p "Choose package: ")"
    setsid -f "$TERMINAL" -e sudo xbps-remove -R "$choice"
}

inst_pkg () {
    sudo xbps-query -Rs \* | awk '{print $2}' | xargs xbps-uhelper getpkgname > /tmp/xbpspkglst
    sleep 1 
    choice="$(cat /tmp/xbpspkglst | dmenu -p "Choose package: ")"
    [ ! -z $choice ] && setsid -f "$TERMINAL" -e sudo xbps-install -S "$choice"
}

case "$(printf "install\npackages\nupdate\nupdate-xbps\nclean-cache\nremove-package\nremove-orphans\nsrc-build" \
        |mydmenu -p "Select action to perform")" in
