terminal::
|
|||
|
|
Specifies the terminal emulator program you prefer. It will be started by default when
|
|||
|
|
you press Mod1+Enter, but you can overwrite this. Refer to it as +$terminal+ to keep things
|
|||
|
|
modular.
|
|||
|
|
font::
|
|||
|
|
Specifies the default font you want i3 to use. Use an X core font descriptor here, like
|
|||
|
|
+-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-C-70-iso10646-1+. You can use +xfontsel(1)+
|
|||
|
|
to pick one.

*Syntax*:

--------------------------------
|
|||
|
|
bind [Modifiers+]keycode command

*Examples*:
|

|
|
--------------------------------
|

# Fullscreen
|

|
|
bind Mod1+41 f
|
|||

=== Automatically putting clients on specific workspaces
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
It is recommended that you match on window classes whereever possible because some applications
|
|||
|
|
first create their window and then care about setting the correct title. Firefox with Vimperator
|
|||
|
|
comes to mind, as the window starts up being named Firefox and only when Vimperator is loaded,
|
|||
|
|
the title changes. As i3 will get the title as soon as the application maps the window (mapping
|
|||
|
|
means actually displaying it on the screen), you’d need to have to match on Firefox in this case.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
*Syntax*:
|
|||
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|||
|
|
assign ["]window class[/window title]["] [→] workspace
|
|||
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
*Examples*:
|
|||
|
|
----------------------
|
|||
|
|
assign urxvt 2
|
|||
|
|
assign urxvt → 2
|
|||
|
|
assign "urxvt" → 2
|
|||
|
|
assign "urxvt/VIM" → 3
