DESCRIPTION
B<rpws> implements multiple workspaces in ratpoison by making calls
to fdump, freestore. It was adapted from rpws which comes with
ratpoison in the contrib directory.
USAGE
- Add the following line in ~/.ratpoisonrc
- exec /path/to/rpws init 6 -k
- This creates 6 aliases rpws1, rpws2, etc. It also binds the keys M-F1, M-F2, etc to each rpwsN alias. Moreover, rpwsn (Next) and rpwsp (Prev) are created, and C-M-{Right,Left} are bound to rpws{n,p}.
FILES
- rpws requires use of a lockfile. It defaults to using
- /tmp/rpws.<UID>.lock but this can be changed by setting the
environment variable RPWS_LOCKFILE to your desired lockfile.
