tilingwm-utils

This repository contains a CLI for tiling window manager utilites (twmu). This repository is heavily inspired by altercation/dotfiles-tilingwm/bin/wm. I'd initially planned to modify items like altercation/dotfiles-tilingwm/bin/wm/ws but thought this would be a good opportunity to get more practical Go experience.

Installation

You can download the latest build for Linux from the releases page.

$ ./twmu help
