I run ./scripts/xephyr in the git source directory while running Qtile to 
test changes to my config file to ensure my own instance doens't crash.

Does any of you know how to terminate the xephyr script? I cannot pass 
qtile commands to the xephyr test window, as my own instance of qtile 
intercepts all the keystrokes and have to rely on the mouse to interact 
with it.

I terminate the script by killing the window using MOD+W (defined in my 
config.py file, calling lazy.window.kill). This causes the terminal window 
I called the command on to go bezerk, so I kill that one as well with 
MOD+W. Then my CPU goes bananas and I enter HTOP to terminate a process 
running a command 
python ..../qtile/scripts..../bin/qtile -l INFO

Not excactly an elegant way to test things :)

Do you have a suggestion on how to run such mini-test?
And how can you pass commands/keystrokes to the xephyr window?
