# i3(1), FILES: on startup i3 looks for its configuration at
# "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/i3/config (or ~/.config/i3/config)", then "~/.i3/config",
# then "$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/i3/config (or /etc/xdg/i3/config)" and "/etc/i3/config".
# The last two are system copies and not user-level. Both user locations are
# listed because a machine can be carrying either; the XDG one is written as
# [configHome] because the man page names the variable rather than assuming
# ~/.config.
#
# i3 is an X11 window manager, so the entry is Linux-only; `i3-msg` is the
# companion command the config itself calls.

# No machine_lines. The tempting candidate is the `workspace <name> output
# <output>` directive, which pins a workspace to a monitor named on this machine
# — but `workspace` is also the first word of workspace_layout and
# workspace_auto_back_and_forth, which are preferences, and a prefix cannot tell
# them apart. Fonts, colours, bindings and bar blocks are all things the user
# wants carried over.
