Hi Marcelo,

Excerpts from Marcelo Cerri's message of 2012-01-02 15:40:19 +0100:

I'd like to use this tool to send commands to i3 (similar to i3-msg) and be
able to get the commands and parameters completed.
By the way, just in case you don’t know that:
You can use 'i3 <command>' just like 'i3-msg <command>'. So, executing 'i3
border none' will work just fine :). I think typing i3 in front of a command
which should go to i3 does not require any more integration (at least for now).

There also is i3-input, which can be used to send IPC commands to i3. It hasn’t
seen much love, though, so it can be improved in various ways.

Best regards,
Michael
