RFE: taskopen -W [window] #71

Closed linuxcaffe closed 3 years ago

linuxcaffe commented 11 years ago

This is for use in multi-pane (tiling) windowing systems, like awesome wm, xmonad, tmux, i3, dvtm, screen, etc, and would depend on related configurations in .taskopenrc.

Using "-W" with no "window#" would open the output in a newly created window, using "-W 2" would send the output to "window 2" of the current layout.

The exact window/ pane co-ordinates issued would have to be configured differently for each wm.

This option would enable a multi-paned windowing layout where commands were issued from one window, but resulting lists, or files, were opened in other windows, gaining a much stronger overview of the content.

If you use a tiling window manager, you'll know what I'm talking about.

I'd rather leave this to the user. A proof-of-concept for vim will be provided in the scripts folder.
