# This script simplifies dropdown windows in i3.
# Shows/hides a scratchpad of a given name, if it doesn't exist, creates it.
# Usage:
# argument 1: script to run in dropdown window
# all other args are interpreted as options for your terminal
# My usage:
# ddspawn
# bindsym $mod+u exec --no-startup-id ddspawn tmuxdd
# Will hide/show window running the `tmuxdd` script when I press mod+u in i3
# bindsym $mod+a exec --no-startup-id ddspawn dropdowncalc -f mono:pixelsize=24
# Similar to above but with `dropdowncalc` and the other args are interpretated as for my terminal emulator (to increase font)
