i3flip - Tabswitching done right

SYNOPSIS

i3flip [--move|-m] [--json JSON] [--verbose] [--dryrun] DIRECTION
i3flip --help|-h
i3flip --version|-v

DESCRIPTION

i3flip switch containers without leaving the parent. Perfect for tabbed or stacked layout, but works on all layouts. If direction is next and the active container is the last, the first container will get focused.

DIRECTION can be either prev or next, which can be defined with different words:

next|right|down|n|r|d
prev|left|up|p|l|u

OPTIONS

--move|-m
Move the current container instead of changing focus.

--json JSON
use JSON instead of output from i3-msg -t get_tree

--verbose
Print more information to stderr.

--dryrun
Don't execute any i3 commands.

--help|-h
Show help and exit.

--version|-v
Show version and exit.

EXAMPLES

~/.config/i3/config:

...
bindsym Mod4+Tab         exec --no-startup-id i3flip next
bindsym Mod4+Shift+Tab   exec --no-startup-id i3flip prev
