AUTOTILING(1)

✨ autotiling — the manual, but make it cute ✨

okay so bestie, this is the autotiling(1) page from the Generated Python Manual, and honestly? it's giving "small script, huge glow-up". let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

autotiling — that's her. that's the whole name. iconic, no notes.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

autotiling [-h] [-d] [-v] [-o [OUTPUTS ...]] [-w [WORKSPACES ...]] [-l
LIMIT] [-sw SPLITWIDTH] [-sh SPLITHEIGHT] [-sr SPLITRATIO] [-e [EVENTS
...]]

okay the way she just lines up all her flags like that... main character energy fr fr 🎀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so basically this is a script for sway and i3 that automatically switches the horizontal / vertical window split orientation for you. no cap. you just live your life and she handles the split vibes. obsessed. ✨

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -d, --debug — prints debug messages to stderr. she's being loud on purpose, and that's valid 🗣️
• -v, --version — displays version information. a little "hi, it's me" moment 💁
• -o [OUTPUTS ...], --outputs [OUTPUTS ...] — restricts autotiling to certain output(s). example: autotiling --output DP-1 HDMI-0. lowkey a "you're on the list, you're not" situation 🎟️
• -w [WORKSPACES ...], --workspaces [WORKSPACES ...] — restricts autotiling to certain workspaces. example: autotiling --workspaces 8 9. so 8 and 9 get the treatment, everyone else can chill 🙈
• -l LIMIT, --limit LIMIT — limits how often autotiling will split a container. try "2" if you like master-stack layouts. default: 0 (no limit). zero means she goes feral, unlimited splits, no self-control 😭
• -sw SPLITWIDTH, --splitwidth SPLITWIDTH — sets the width of the vertical split (as a factor). default: 1.0;
• -sh SPLITHEIGHT, --splitheight SPLITHEIGHT — sets the height of the horizontal split (as a factor). default: 1.0;
• -sr SPLITRATIO, --splitratio SPLITRATIO — split direction ratio, based on window height/width. default: 1; try "1.61" for golden ratio — window has to be 61% wider for left/right split. default: 1.0;
• -e [EVENTS ...], --events [EVENTS ...] — a list of events to trigger switching split orientation. default: WINDOW MODE. she's listening for exactly those two, and those two only 👀

ngl the --splitratio one is doing the most (affectionate). "1.61"?? golden ratio?? she's an artist, your honor 🧚
