The following Panels & Menus are intended for Linux/Unix use.  These tools represent a much lighter weight set of panels & menus (consuming less memory) than those more typically found on Linux Desktop Environments such as gnome, KDE, etc.  Generally, these are used on Linux/ Unix window managers such as: bspwm, dwm, fluxbox, herbstluftwm, i3wm, jwm, openbox, xmonad …

This list is not exhaustive. Yes, there are more.  However, this should give you a decent starting point for your investigations.
