NAME

i3-wsbar - sample implementation of a standalone workspace bar

SYNOPSIS

i3-wsbar -c <dzen2-commandline> [options]

OPTIONS

--command <command>

This command (at the moment only dzen2 is supported) will be started for each output. %x will be replaced with the X coordinate of the output.

Example:
--command "dzen2 -dock -x %x"

--input-on <list-of-RandR-outputs>

Specifies on which outputs the contents of stdin should be appended to the workspace bar.

Example:
--input-on "LVDS1"

--output-on <list-of-RandR-outputs>

Specifies for which outputs i3-wsbar should start "command".

--show-all

If enabled, all workspaces are shown (not only those of the current output). Handy to use with "--output-on".
