WINWRANGLER(1)

📦 version 0.2.4, in debian bookworm, ubuntu jammy

💖 WINWRANGLER 💖

okay bestie, sit down, we're talking about winwrangler — a small desktop daemon that does the advanced window stuff your window manager simply refuses to do. it's giving "i'll handle it myself" energy. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

winwrangler

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, winwrangler does window manipulations not commonly found in window managers. like, your WM said "no <3" and winwrangler said "bet." 💅

this package contains support for the tile and expand actions. that's the whole vibe.

🚨 real talk though, no cap: this package is based on a very early release of WinWrangler and should not be considered production ready by a long shot. like, not even close. do not run this on your main character machine and then act surprised. 😭

🌸 USAGE 🌸

winwrangler [OPTION...]

🎀 HELP OPTION 🎀

lost? valid. we've all been there. 🙈

  • -h, --help — shows the help options. the classic "pls explain" button.
  • --help-all — shows all the help options. every single one. the full lore drop. 👑
  • --help-gtk — shows GTK+ Options. yes bestie, the GTK+ ones specifically. 🫶

⭐ APPLICATION OPTIONS: ⭐

the main event. the moment. the slay. 🌈

  • -l, --layout — the layout function to apply. this is you telling it how to arrange your windows, fr fr.
  • --layouts — prints a list of layout functions. like a menu of vibes. go window shopping (literally). 🍓
  • -t, --tray — adds an icon in the system tray. lowkey cute, highkey convenient. heads up though: this implies --daemon. 🧚
  • -d, --daemon — runs a background process listening for hotkey events. it's just... there. lurking. in a helpful way. 💜
  • --display=DISPLAY — the X display to use. tell it which screen you're living on. ✨
