Nice - might be nice to have a menu item eventually for this too in config. Still actually have to setup my mobile data to begin with

Sometimes, more than a few button presses are required to get to a menu item at the bottom when fewer presses are needed if it were possible to jump to the last item from the first.
The condition checks are really simple if you want to poke around the code: https://git.sr.ht/~mil/sxmo-dmenu/tree/master/dmenu.c#L575 Basically you'd just if/else the condition and in the new branch modify the curr pointer accordingly.

Here's my setup in case you're interested in any of it.
I didn't realize at first that the gestures worked from any starting position on the screen, provided there's enough room to meet the 300 (pixel?) minimum. I use GMD Gesture Control on Android, and it has starting zones, where you have to begin the gesture within -- for example -- 50px of the bottom screen edge.
So I did away with the one-finger-up and one-finger-down gestures. Here's what seemed to make sense to me:
one finger swipe left -- change desktop (as original)
one finger swipe right -- menu
two finger swipe down -- close app
three finger swipe up -- keyboard
three finger swipe down -- close keyboard
I didn't need any of dwm's app-switching features, because I like apps to take up the full screen, so I'm essentially using the desktops like webOS cards, one app per desktop. I just flip through them with left-to-right gestures.
Since I have access to the menu at any time via the right-to-left gesture, I changed the key bindings (much reduced) to reflect my likely needs.
What did you put in the config.h for lisgd for the "one finger swipe right -- menu"? I have tried several things, for example:
{ 1, Left, Right, "sxmo_appmenu.sh" },
and everything I've tried has worked to open the menu, but also every time I try to use this if I open the Dialer submenu and then click on "Close Menu" it crashes and goes back to the xdm login. I'd love to have a swipe to open menu, but not if there will be weird crashes that I can't figure out.
It's something specifically with running sxmo_appmenu.sh. If I try to run, for example, st; then there are no problems.

I think something you might want to try is backgrounding sxmo_appmenu.sh; e.g launch with sxmo_appmenu.sh &
The commands you define in lisgd are expected to return instantly so using something long-running might throw things off. Especially because I think in the modem dialer at the end we wind up killing all dmenu instances; so maybe that could be the cause of the issue. Though X itself shouldn't crash in anycase - If you can replicate an X crash using lisgd / sxmo-utils please file a bug on the sr.ht bug tracker with replication steps.

Thanks!
Also - I wanted to mention here - I just rolled a new image release of Sxmo - version 0.1.6, should be up at:
http://images.lrdu.org/pinephone/
We now have diagonal gestures support in lisgd which is a great improvement from my point of view because now you can use a single finger gesture to increase/decrease volume/brightness. Three/four finger gestures are no more
More info on gestures improvements and other changes are at the mailing list:

I know most of the focus is on postMarketOS and UBPorts, but for me this is the most exciting OS you can run on your PinePhone.
Initially there's a learning curve to figure out the controls - and also with the PinePhone as it is, doing 3 quick clicks on one of the physical buttons isn't always easy.
But once you get the hang of it, this really does feel great.
Right now for me the screen gestures are very hit and miss, but Surf, ST, and their interesting YouTube via MPV setup work great.
This is definitely a project to watch.

Just to update - I figured out how to do the gestures - they're working great for me now. So I have no 'complaints' to speak of.
Big thumbs up to @mil!
This is exactly the sort of project that the PinePhone was born for.

Good to hear : )

Also wanted to add here there's a new image for Sxmo - 0.1.7, finally we have good GPS / Maps support (copying coordinates, searching viewport area, pasting coordinates, looking up locations, switching map types, locating yourself via geoclue, etc.). Ofcourse this is all accessible through the Pinephone buttons / via dmenu : ). Foxtrotgps is actually pretty great when you consider it's quick boot speed and scripting around it wasn't *too* hard
Other than that we have contacts support now through a TSV file which was a long standing todo item - and you can also now 'background' the dmenu for calls so you can continue to use the system during the call. There are some other minor fixes and improvements you can checkout at the changelog and ML.

Miles - I'm having a problem making git@git.sr.ht:~mil/sxmo-svkbd.
svkbd build options:
CFLAGS = -g -std=c99 -pedantic -Wall -Os -I. -I./layouts -I/usr/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -DVERSION="0.1"
LDFLAGS = -g -L/usr/lib -lc -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXtst
CC = cc
make: *** No rule to make target 'svkbd-en', needed by 'all'. Stop.
Is svkbd-en supposed to be in this directory?
Thanks Miles for your response (below), and for sharing your great project

The build for svkbd only produces svkbd-sxmo. I'd suggest either using the APKBUILD proper or using the command the APKBUILD uses:
https://git.sr.ht/~mil/sxmo-alpine/tree/master/abuilds/sxmo-svkbd/APKBUILD#L25
E.g. try:
Code:
make svkbd-sxmo X11INC=/usr/include/X11 X11LIB=/usr/lib/X11 FREETYPEINC=/usr/include/freetype2
