I have expeimented with qtile-cmd and almost got it. This give you the group on screen 0 qtile-cmd -o cmd -f screens | grep -m 1 group | cut -f4 -d"'" But I have problem with the next command, toscreen, I can't find the correct syntax qtile-cmd -o group <group_name> -f toscreen -a 1 So together it should be qtile-cmd -o group $(qtile-cmd -o cmd -f screens | grep -m 1 group | cut -f4 -d"'") -f toscreen -a 1 But I get the following error: error: Sorry cannot run function 'toscreen' with arguments ['1'] So if we could find the correct syntax on the last one I think this should work. This is can probably be done better in Python, but I have no clue howto. -- Kai Stian Olstad -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qtile-dev" group.
