NAME

       tabbed - generic tabbed interface

SYNOPSIS

       tabbed  [-c]  [-d]  [-h]  [-s]  [-v]  [-g  geometry]  [-n  name]  [-p [s+/-]pos] [-r narg]
       [command...]

DESCRIPTION

       tabbed is a simple tabbed container for applications which  support  XEmbed.  Tabbed  will
       then run the provided command with the xid of tabbed as appended argument. (See EXAMPLES.)
       The automatic spawning of the command can be disabled by providing the -s parameter. If no
       command is provided tabbed will just print its xid and run no command.

OPTIONS

       -c     close tabbed when the last tab is closed. Mutually exclusive with -f.

       -d     detaches tabbed from the terminal and prints its XID to stdout.

       -f     fill up tabbed again by spawning the provided command, when the last tab is closed.
              Mutually exclusive with -c.

       -h     will print the usage of tabbed.

       -g geometry
              defines the X11 geometry string, which will fixate the height and width of  tabbed.
              Them     form    is    [=][<width>{xX}<height>][{+-}<xoffset>{+-}<yoffset>].    See
              XParseGeometry(3) for further details.

       -n name
              will set the WM_CLASS attribute to name.

       -p [ s +/-] pos
              will set the absolute or relative position of where to start a new tab. When pos is
              is  given  without  's'  in front it is an absolute position. Then negative numbers
              will be the position from the last tab, where -1 is the last tab.  If 's' is given,
              then  pos  is  a relative position to the current selected tab. If this reaches the
              limits of the tabs; those limits then apply.

       -r narg
              will replace the narg th argument in  command  with  the  window  id,  rather  than
              appending it to the end.

       -s     will disable automatic spawning of the command.

       -t color
              defines  the  selected  background  color.   #RGB,  #RRGGBB,  and X color names are
              supported.

       -T color
              defines the selected foreground color.

       -u color
              defines the normal background color.

       -U color
              defines the normal foreground color.

       -v     prints version information to stderr, then exits.

EXAMPLES

       $ tabbed surf -e

       $ tabbed urxvt -embed

       $ tabbed xterm -into

       $ xid=$(tabbed -d);urxvt -embed $xid

       $ tabbed -r 2 st -w '' -e tmux

CUSTOMIZATION

       tabbed by default uses Ctrl as Mod key and can be customized by creating a custom config.h
       and (re)compiling the source code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.

       Debian also provides the tabbed.meta alternative which uses the Windows key as Mod key.
