ewmh-m2m 0.0.3

Move window between monitor in EWMH compliant WM

− Licence − Authors − Changelog

Rationale

I love XFCE. I use it on almost all my computers. However, in a multi head setup, it lacks a “move window to monitor” feature. Some posts link to the move-to-next-monitor script, which as many dependencies and is not very customizable (move to bottom, to right, etc.)

Hence, here it is ewmh_m2m.

Install

Just install the package with pip:

pip install ewmh-m2m  # Note the dash and not the underscore!

You should now have a move-to-monitor command available.

Usage

Call move-to-monitor to move the active window to the next monitor. Next versions (starting at 1.0.0) will accept some arguments:

• to define in which direction to look for the “next” (up, bottom, left, right)
• to define if you want to wrap to the previous if on last screen
• to do more things if you have more ideas

Development

Feel free to ask some features on GitHub. You can also develop your own features and open Pull Requests. Take a look at the technical documentation.
