Usage without i3 #79

Closed fdietze closed 7 years ago

fdietze commented 7 years ago

Hi, is it possible to use i3status-rust without i3? I would like to play with this bar but am not using i3 myself. I would be fine running i3bar, but not using i3 - if that's even possible.

I use it with sway. I imagine you could use it with other things as long as it can run an i3bar. Although I think they plan to make it more general in the future?

As @OneMoreByte pointed out, there are already plans to make this program compatible with other bar-rendering programs. But currently it only works with i3bar and any wm that can use i3bar- I'll close this issue as a duplicate :)
