You get the idea

```

Usage

Add wmctrl to your dependencies in your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] wmctrl = "0.1.4"

If you want the latest build use the GitHub repository as your uplink: toml [dependencies] wmctrl = { git = "https://github.com/Treborium/rust-wmctrl" }

Examples

Please refer to the documentation for detailed information.

If you want to copy & paste the examples below you need to use the following import statement:

Rust use wmctrl::{Self, Window};

Find a window based on the title:

Rust let windows = wmctrl::get_windows(); let firefox = wmctrl::utils::find_window_by_title(&windows, "Firefox")?; println!("{}", firefox);

Resize and move a window to the specified coordinates:

Rust let win = wmctrl::get_windows().get(0)?; // This will move the window to the top left corner and resize it to 960x540 win.transform(wmctrl::Transformation::new(0, 0, 960, 540));

Close the window gracefully:

Rust // We need to move the window out of the vector so there is no reference left let win: Window = wmctrl::get_windows().remove(0); win.close();

Make the window fullscreen:

Rust let win = wmctrl::get_windows().get(0)?; // Make the window fullscreen win.change_state(wmctrl::State::new(wmctrl::Action::Add, wmctrl::Property::Fullscreen));
