This modifies cmd_move to allow for the syntax options allowed by i3. The following syntaxes are supported: - `move left|right|up|down [<amount> [px]]` - `move [--no-auto-back-and-forth] [window|container] [to] workspace <name>|next|prev|next_on_output|prev_on_output|current|number <num>` - `move [window|container] [to] output <name/id>|left|right|up|down` - `move [window|container] [to] mark <mark>` - `move workspace to [output] <name/id>|left|right|up|down` - `move [window|container] [to] [absolute] position <x> [px] <y> [px]` - `move [window|container] [to] [absolute] position center` - `move [window|container] [to] position mouse|cursor|pointer` This also allows retains the following syntax option that is not supported by i3, but is supported in sway 1.0: - `move workspace [to] output <name/id>|left|right|up|down` The changes are: - `window` and `container` are now optional - `output` is now optional for `move workspace` when `to` is given There is also stricter command checking now. If `absolute` or `--no-auto-back-and-forth` are given for commands that do not support them, it will be treated as invalid syntax instead of being silently ignored. |

Configuration
If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config
and
it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to
~/.config/sway/config
. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config
.
Run man 5 sway
for information on the configuration.
Running
Run sway
from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by
sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
