i3bar(1)
========

v4.1, October 2011
== NAME
i3bar - xcb-based status- and workspace-bar
== SYNOPSIS
*i3bar* [*-s* 'sock_path'] [*-b* 'bar_id'] [*-v*] [*-h*]
== WARNING
i3bar will automatically be invoked by i3 for every 'bar' configuration block.
Starting it manually is usually not what you want to do.
You have been warned!
== OPTIONS
*-s, --socket* 'sock_path'::
Overwrites the path to the i3 IPC socket.
*-b, --bar_id* 'bar_id'::
Specifies the bar ID for which to get the configuration from i3.
*-v, --version*::
Display version number and exit.
*-h, --help*::
Display a short help-message and exit
== DESCRIPTION
*i3bar* displays a bar at the bottom (or top) of your monitor(s) containing
workspace switching buttons and a statusline generated by i3status(1) or
similar. It is automatically invoked (and configured through) i3.
i3bar supports colors via a JSON protocol starting from v4.2, see
https://i3wm.org/docs/i3bar-protocol.html
== ENVIRONMENT
=== I3SOCK
Used as a fallback for the i3 IPC socket path if neither the commandline
contains an argument nor the I3_SOCKET_PATH property is set on the X11 root
window.
== EXAMPLES
Nothing to see here, move along. As stated above, you should not run i3bar manually.
Instead, see the i3 documentation, especially the Users Guide.
== SEE ALSO
+i3status(1)+, +j4status(1)+ or +conky(1)+ for programs generating a statusline.
+dzen2(1)+ or +xmobar(1)+ for similar programs to i3bar.
