  • gnome-magic-window: Handy script to bring a window to the front on GNOME3 + Wayland
    2 projects | /r/gnome | 12 Apr 2021
    After switching to Wayland, I found myself sorely missing GUI automation tools like xdotool and wmctrl. I found ydotool as a replacement for xdotool, but couldn't find an alternative to wmctrl yet for Window manipulations. Today I came across gnome-magic-window and gnome-active-window - both of which I found to be extremely useful, yet has had very little coverage in the community, so thought I'd share it with everyone here who's running Wayland and have been just as disappointed as me, or for those of you who've yet to make the switch to because of lack of said tools. :)
