Script: info-hlwm-workspaces

Displays all herbstluftwm workspaces with support for all workspace states (focused, visible, occupied, empty, urgent).

Dependencies

• herbstluftwm running as your WM

Configuration

On its own the script is pretty plain as there are no colors. There are a bunch of TODO comments where you can echo Formatting Tags for certain workspace state to make it more colorful and help you actually distinguish the different states.
