User is supposed to uncomment the desierd one (and/or modify it) and delete the unsused ones.

Moreover, user should add a surrouding root container which is missing in the file (this baffles me, why cant they save it too?).

1. export the workspace into jason using ```i3-save-tree --workspace ...```

2. edit the json to match your desired matching rules for the windows

3. wrap the file in a root node, which defines the root split.

4. when needed, load the layout using ```i3-append ...```

However, this plan has flaws.
|
||||
Its not scalable, its not automated and loading a layout does not work when windows are already present in the current workspace.
|
||||
To fix it, I built this **layout manager**.
|
||||
Currently, its a hacky-type of a shell script, but feel free to contribute :-).
|
||||
|
||||
## How does it work?
|
||||
|
||||
1. The workspace tree is exported usin ```i3-save-tree --workspace ...```
|
||||
2. The tree for all workpsaces in the cofused monitor is exported using ```i3-save-tree --output ...```
|
||||
3. The location of the current workspace in the all-tree is found by matching the workspace-tree file on the monitor-tree file.
