SLW(1)

💅 SLW(1) — like, the manual but make it make sense ✨

okay bestie, welcome to slw — short for select window interactively, and honestly? it's giving tiny-but-iconic. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

slw — select window interactively 🫶

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

slw

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. no flags, no arguments, no notes. she's low-effort and high-impact, fr fr. 💅

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so here's the vibe: slw waits for a button press event and then prints the window ID that got the event to stdout. 🖱️✨

like literally — you run it, it just sits there being patient (very demure, very mindful), you click something with your mouse, and boom 💥 the window ID of whatever received that click comes out on stdout. no cap.

it's the click-a-window-to-pick-it tool. main character behavior, honestly. use that ID for whatever you're cooking up next. 👑

🦋 ENVIRONMENT 🦋

• DISPLAY — slw acts on the X display specified by the DISPLAY variable. so if you've got multiple displays going, that's the one she's listening to, okay? set it right or she's looking at the wrong screen entirely 😭

no sneaky extra options hiding in here — the env var is the whole story. don't come for me, I checked. 🙈
