Thanks Philippe, 

Alt +T, m, d will open an menu bar with information from a-r like "a
<TEXTEDITOR>" but without any information, I am assuming that it should
update the list of existing installed packages.

Ok, I have some questions (If you don't mind ) 

1) Why the menu bar is getting populated with predefined values. for
example "a <TEXTEDITOR>, b <SOMETHING>". It should be dynamic depends
upon the existing system.
2) Do we have something like mode-line in StumpWM
3) Alt +T , ! opens run query box, but it does not auto complete, for
example i can't just type ema<TAB> to complete emacs-24-0-92 etc.
