  • Run command *before* any window opens

    I got a hacky implementation of it working today. Newly opened tiled windows are moved to the scratchpad, the previous window gets split, and then new window is retrieved from the scratchpad. Aside from a decent bit of flickering as windows are moved around, it seems to work as intended! Still not ideal but it's a start!
