VDESK(1)
β¨ NAME β¨
okay so bestie, meet vdesk β virtual desktops for any window manager. this whole page is the VDESK(1) manual, and it's giving "tiny tool, big main character energy." π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
here's the whole vibe:
vdesk DESKTOP [WINDOW-ID]
so you run vdesk with a DESKTOP, and optionally a WINDOW-ID. the square brackets around WINDOW-ID are doing their little optional thing, bestie. π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
vdesk provides virtual desktops portably; it's mainly useful for lightweight window managers that do not provide the functionality natively. like, it's giving "I got you" energy for setups that don't already have this built in. β¨
It changes to DESKTOP. And if WINDOW-ID is specified, then that window is moved to the specified DESKTOP. periodt. π«Ά
Also, this manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. so yeah, Debian said "fine, I'll do it myself" ππ
