qtile

A full-featured, hackable tiling window manager written and configured in Python.

TLDR

Start the window manager, if it is not running already (should ideally be run from .xsession or similar)

$ qtile start
copy


Check the configuration file for any compilation errors (default location is ~/.config/qtile/config.py)
$ qtile check
copy


Show current resource usage information
$ qtile top --force
copy


Open the program xterm as a floating window on the group named test-group
$ qtile run-cmd --group [test-group] --float [xterm]
copy


Restart the window manager
$ qtile cmd-obj --object cmd --function restart
copy
