i3exit command

i3exit is a script that provides system power management and session control for the i3 window manager. It wraps common actions like locking, suspending, hibernating, and logging out into a single command.
The script is typically bound to keyboard shortcuts or used in i3 mode menus, providing consistent behavior for power management operations regardless of the underlying display manager or systemd configuration.

logout

Exit i3 and return to display manager

Lock the screen

Suspend the system to RAM

Hibernate the system to disk

Reboot the system

Power off the system

Requires appropriate permissions for power management operations. Behavior may vary depending on the display manager and systemd configuration. Some commands may require polkit authentication.

i3exit was developed for Manjaro Linux's i3 edition to provide a convenient power management interface for i3 users. It abstracts the differences between various power management backends.
