NAME¶
i3-save-tree - save (parts of) the layout tree for restoring
SYNOPSIS¶
i3-save-tree [--workspace=name] [--output=name]
DESCRIPTION¶
Dumps a workspace (or an entire output) to stdout. The data is supposed to be
edited a bit by a human, then later fed to i3 via the append_layout command.
The append_layout command will create placeholder windows, arranged in the
layout the input file specifies. Each container should have a swallows
specification. When a window is mapped (made visible on the screen) that
matches the specification, i3 will put it into that place and kill the
placeholder.
OPTIONS¶
- --workspace=name

--output need to be specified.
- --output=name
