== Obtaining the debug logfile
Please note that log files may contain sensitive data such as window titles.
[CAUTION]
================================================================================
Logs may contain sensitive information, so please inspect the log before
submitting it. Logs may be viewed by anyone, once posted. If you choose to
redact the log, make an effort not to discard information which may be relevant
to the issue you are reporting.
The best way to avoid submitting such information is to only run the necessary
applications to reproduce the behavior when saving the log file. This will also
make analyzing the log file easier.

================================================================================
No matter whether i3 misbehaved in some way without crashing or whether it just
crashed, the logfile provides all information necessary to debug the problem.
