Hi James,

Have you tried something similar to this approach?

You can also separate the commands with a &&:

i3-msg split h  && \
i3-msg exec urxvt && \
i3-msg exec urxvt  && \

Thanks, I just altered the script to test this but does not work for
me either.  I have to have the sleeps.

I also tried using "& wait" at the end of each line but no dice.

I was able to reduce the sleep time to 0.1 and still have it work as
expected but haven't tried from a cold boot yet.
