commands

focusTo direction [Ctl t + (h,j,k,l)]

Switches focus towards direction within the visible tiled windows. ex: focusTo R

splitV ratio [Ctl t + v]

Splits the focused frame vertically, yielding two new frames where the new left/right frame sizes are dictated by ratio.

splitH ratio [Ctl t + h]

Splits the focused frame horizontally, yielding two new frames where the new up/down frame sizes are dictated by ratio.

swapToDir direction [Ctl t + (H,J,K,L)]

Swaps the contents of two adjacent frames.

raiseHidden L/R [Ctl t + (i,o)]

Cycles through the stack of hidden windows within the focused frame.

removeFrame [Ctl t + r]

Removes the focused frame. If a window was contained within the frame, it is added to the hidden stack.

spawnTerminal [Ctl t + c]

Launches a user-defined terminal.

makeOnly [Ctl t + e]

Remove all splits from the current workspace, leaving only the focused frame to occupy the entire screen.

killWindow [Ctl t + q]

Exits the currently focused window. If there are windows in the hidden stack, the next in the queue will be focused. Otherwise, the frame becomes empty.

equalize [Ctl t + =]

Sets the split ratios of all frames to 0.5.

banish [Ctl t + b]

Relocates the mouse pointer to the bottom right of the currently focused screen.

flipT [Ctl t + /]

Rotates the workspace frame layout by 90 degrees.

shiftTo direction [Ctl t + (alt + (h,j,k,l))]

Shifts the focused frame towards direction.

resizeFrame direction ratio [alt + (H,J,K,L)]

Resizes the frame layout by increase/decreasing the split ratio by ratio in the specified direction.

toggleWS [alt + tab]

Switches back to the last used workspace.

toggleScr [win + tab]

Switches focus back to the last used screen.

quit [alt + Q]

Exit sunwm.

changeWS number [alt + (1,2,3,..)]

Switches to the workspace specified by number.

moveWinToWS number [alt + shift + (1,2,3,..)]

Moves the focused window to the workspace specified by number. The window will be placed into the last frame that was focused on the new workspace.
