Python simple tiler for non-tiling window managers
Project description
Pystiler Spaces
=============
.. image:: https://badge.fury.io/py/pystiler.svg
:target: https://badge.fury.io/py/pystiler
The goal of this project is to be able to define tiled workspaces and
open them with ease on non-tiling wms.
This is a simple python script which wraps wmctrl to allow for easier
tiling.
Bind it to a key or to autowhatever-on-window-creation-hook.
Install
~~~~~~~
Install with
::
pip install pystiler
run with
::
python3 stiler.py <arg>
Currently arguments are
left, right
top, bottom
top\_left, bottom\_left
top\_right, bottom\_right
maximize
All of which do pretty much what you'd expect to the active window.
Todos for the project
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- [x] Add top and bottom targets
- [x] Add [top,bottom][left,right] targets
- [x] Add simple CLI interface
- [x] Add simple test cases
- [ ] Add tests for window resizing
- [ ] Find out what's causing wmctrl to misfire on second call
- [ ] Find out what bug fixes others have done
- [ ] Map out final goals of project
- [ ] Make nice python package
- [ ] Make list of already-resized window IDs to mitigate the resizing
problem
