Full description
This is xwmfs (X window manager file system), a userspace file system based on
fuse that allows interaction with an EWMH compliant X11 window manager
via files.
Some of its features are:
- newly appearing and disappearing windows in the X server are recognized and
the file system is updated in an event based manner
- new values for properties of window manager and windows will be reflected in
the file system in an event based manner
- properties of windows and window manager can be changed via writing to files
in the file system
- some X operations are accessible via control files in the file system
The file system can be used for easily implementing scripts that operate on
the window manager and windows (for example identifying specific windows,
rename a window, move it around and so on).
