Thought this might be interesting to some here: [GitHub - ebeem/guile-swayer: Extensible Guile bindings for SwayWM](https://github.com/ebeem/guile-swayer)

This project provides complete control over `Sway/i3` using `Guile`!

Well that is a cool find! I’ve been looking for a way to 1) move off of Regolith to something more distro-portable and 2) improve script-ability of i3. Heck, this might help me move to sway as well.

Thx for the share!
