i3 Scripts

---

Some utility scripts for i3. Detailed installation instruction is contained within each script. rofi based scripts can be used by the following syntax:

$ rofi -show example -modi example:~/.local/bin/example-script

Within i3, you most likely want to assign a corresponding key binding:

bindsym $mod+e exec --no-startup-id "rofi -show example -modi example:~/.local/bin/example-script"

• All scripts rely on the i3ipc python package
