wmctl

license-badge crates.io Minimum rustc

Rust X11 automation

wmctl implements the Extended Window Manager Hints (EWMH) specification as a way to work along side EWMH compatible window managers as a companion. wmctl provides the ability to precisely define how windows should be shaped and placed and can fill in gaps for window managers lacking some shaping or placement features. Mapping wmctl commands to user defined hot key sequences will allow for easy window manipulation beyond what your favorite EWMH window manager provides.

Usage

This minimum rustc requirement is driven by the tracing_subscriber requirements

Shape window

Shape the active window using the pre-defined small shape which is a quarter of the screen. bash $ wmctl shape small

Move window

Move the active window to the bottom left corner of the screen. bash $ wmctl move bottom-left

Place window

Combine the shape and move into a single command by placing the window. First the window is shaped using the pre-defined small shape then it is moved to the bottom left of the screen in a single operation. bash $ wmctl place small bottom-left
