+Subject: [PATCH] Add an option which defines the lineheight
+
+Despite both the panel and dmenu using the same font (a Terminus 12),
+dmenu is shorter and the panel is visible from under the dmenu bar.
+The appearance can be even more distracting when using similar colors
+for background and selections. With the option added by this patch,
+dmenu can be launched with a '-h 24', thus completely covering the panel.
