Hi James,

Quoting James Robertson (2012-04-25 06:44:46)

Here is what I want to achieve represented in ascii (If it comes out
wrong in your email then below it is a link to an image).

┌────────────┬────────────┐
│ │ │

└────────────┴────────────┘

I have tried various options but none work as desired. for example...

#!/bin/bash

i3-msg split h
i3-msg exec urxvt
i3-msg split v
i3-msg exec urxvt
i3-msg exec urxvt

But only end it with 3 terminals horizontal. I have tried changing
this with various options and focus. I also ran these on the command
line separated by ";".
Use:
i3-msg split h
i3-msg exec urxvt
i3-msg exec urxvt
i3-msg split v
i3-msg exec urxvt

Best regards,
Michael
