@ -23,10 +23,13 @@ Currently, its a hacky-type of a shell script, but feel free to contribute :-).
## How does it work?
1. The workspace tree is exported usin ```i3-save-tree --workspace ...```
2. The tree for all workpsaces in the cofused monitor is exported using ```i3-save-tree --output ...```
2. The tree for all workspaces on the currently focused monitor exported using ```i3-save-tree --output ...```
3. The location of the current workspace in the all-tree is found by matching the workspace-tree file on the monitor-tree file.
TODO
4. The parameters of the root split are extracted and the workspace tree is wrapped in a new split.
5. User is then asked about how should the windows be matched. The options are:
1. All by _instance_ (instance will be uncommented for all windows)
2. Match any window to any placeholder
3. Choose an option for each window. With this option, the user will be asked to choose between the _class_, _instance_ and _title_ for each window. The tree file will be modified according to the selected options.
