✨ AEROSPACE-FOCUS-MONITOR(1) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the AeroSpace Manual page for aerospace-focus-monitor 🎀 — this is the one that moves your focus between monitors, and it does it three whole ways: by relative direction, by order, or by pattern. pick your fighter 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, here's the whole menu of ways to call it:

aerospace focus-monitor [-h|--help] [--wrap-around] (left|down|up|right)
aerospace focus-monitor [-h|--help] [--wrap-around] (next|prev)
aerospace focus-monitor [-h|--help] [--] <monitor-pattern>...

three forms, all iconic, all valid 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Focus monitor by relative direction, by order, or by pattern.

that's it. that's the whole vibe. you point at a monitor and it becomes the main character 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -h, --help — prints help. the "wait what does this do again" button 🫶
  • --wrap-around — makes it possible to wrap around focus. so when you hit the edge, you don't just sit there like 😭 — you loop back around, slay 💫

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

  • (left|down|up|right) — focus the monitor in that direction relative to the focused monitor. literally just "go left, bestie" 🧭
  • (next|prev) — focus the next / prev monitor in the order they appear in the tray icon. lowkey the order you never think about until you need it 🍓
  • <monitor-pattern>... — find the first matching monitor and focus it. and yes, you can pass multiple monitor patterns — that's genuinely useful for different monitor configurations (laptop at home vs. laptop at the café, iykyk ☕). monitor patterns follow the same format as in the workspace-to-monitor-force-assignment config option. same format, same rules, no cap 🔥
ngl, that pattern one is the sleeper hit of this whole command. multiple patterns = one command that Just Works across all your setups 💅
