You need an extrenal program.
gmrun is very nice; TAB command completion and history search.

You can also get a full Arch menu.

1 Install archlinux-xdg-menu.
2 Uncomment openbox in /etc/update-menus.conf
3 Run (as root) /usr/sbin/update-menus ¹

You just created the pipe-menu /var/cache/xdg-menu/openbox/menu.xml,
ready to be catted in the openbox menu configuration file.

¹ Source /etc/profile.d/kde.sh before update-menus if you have kdemod3
installed.
