This will be a file listing a number of the fancy 'oneliners' I make use of (and made).
This is a little awk to toggle between having the screen power saving on/off.
Helps keep music going through my external speakers when docked.
xset q | awk 'BEGIN {C="xset -display :0.0"} /DPMS is/ {match($0,/DPMS is (.*)/,m)} END {if(m[1]=="Enabled"){D="-dpms";S="off";B="noblank"} else {D="dpms";S="on";B="blank"}} END {system(C" "D);system(C" s "S);system(C" s "B)}'
Simplifies restarting my fancy lemonbar.
Useful when going between single/multiple monitors.
pkill lemonbar; $HOME/.i3/lemonbar/i3_lemonbar.sh &
A little trinary switch for toggling between "ipv4+external ipv4", "ipv6", and "hide ip" modes in my lemonbar
awk -v TEMP=/tmp/i3_lemonbar_ip_${USER} 'BEGIN {{FILE=getline < TEMP < 0 ? "0" : "1"} {if($0==1){STATE=1} else if($0==2){STATE=2} else{STATE=0}} {if(STATE==0){system("echo 1 > "TEMP)} else if(STATE==1){system("echo 2 > "TEMP)} else {system("echo 0 > "TEMP)}} }'
This kills xss-lock, or starts it
pkill xss-lock || xss-lock -- i3block -e -c 2E3436 &
