USAGE

Copy the contents of xdotool-keybinds.xml into your ~/.config/openbox.rc.xml, ensuring that any other tiling commands are removed first.

See ob-tile -h|--help for usage.

DISPLAY KEYBINDS

To display the manual numpad keybinds, copy tiling-kbinds.sh to your $PATH, and make it executable; then copy tiling-kbinds.txt to ~/.config/openbox/;

To create a keybind to show them in a yad dialog window: for example

    <!-- Show tiling keybinds in yad window -->
    <keybind key="C-Menu">
      <action name="Execute">
        <command>tiling-kbinds.sh</command>
      </action>
    </keybind>

ICONS

If you would like to use launchers to run the grid/vertical/horizontal commands then copy the icons to eg ~/.icons or /usr/share/pixmaps.

tile-max.png is for use with the maxwin.sh script.
