I've never felt a need to use a tool like kanshi, so I know hardly anything about it. I'll need to take a look at the docs.
I'd like to bump the feature. Nwg-displays is great at setting up a static workstation profile. What it lacks is dynamic profile matching, which is, understandably, not in scope of this project.
To support kanshi, nwg-displays would need to allow "saving as" of the current profile as a kanshi formatted file. Kanshi supports wildcards in its configs, so it would be on user whether they overwrite their existing config or add a separate one.

Maybe a "kanshi mode" where kanshi config is edited directly by adding or removing profiles?

With kanshi
support, you could get support for other wlroots
based compositors without any extra support.
I can take a wack at this while I'm working on #30 . I'm familiar with how kanshi
profiles are set up.
Hey this looks great.
It would be cool if this tool could generate kanshi profiles.
If you do that then if you save a config as a profile in kanshi config, then of you dock or move to a different desk then kanshi will detect the profile and automatically switch for you.
