i3list - list information about the current i3 session
i3list [--json JSON]
i3list --instance|-i TARGET [--json JSON] [--verbose]
i3list --class|-c TARGET [--json JSON] [--verbose]
i3list --conid|-n TARGET [--json JSON] [--verbose]
i3list --winid|-d TARGET [--json JSON] [--verbose]
i3list --mark|-m TARGET [--json JSON] [--verbose]
i3list --title|-t TARGET [--json JSON] [--verbose]
i3list --help|-h
i3list --version|-v
-c, --class TARGET | Search for windows with a class matching *TARGET*
-n, --conid TARGET | Search for windows with a CON_ID matching TARGET
-h, --help | print help and exit
-i, --instance TARGET | Search for windows with a instance matching TARGET
--json JSON | Use JSON instead of output from `i3-msg -t get_tree`
-m, --mark TARGET | Search for windows with a mark matching TARGET
-t, --title TARGET | Search for windows with a title matching TARGET
--verbose | Short description
-v, --version | Print version info and exit
-d, --winid TARGET | Search for windows with a **WINDOW_ID** matching *TARGET*
i3list prints a list in a array formatted list.
If a search criteria is given
(-c|-i|-n|-d|-m)
information about the first window matching the criteria is displayed.
Information about the active window is always displayed.
If no search criteria is given,
the active window will also be the target window.
By using eval, the output can be used as an array in bash scripts, but the array needs to be declared first.
