8 i3-nagbar - displays an error bar on top of your screen
12 i3-nagbar [-m <message>] [-b <button> <terminal-action>] [-B <button> <shell-action>] [-t warning|error] [-f <font>] [-v]
17 Display version number and exit.
20 Display a short help-message and exit.
23 Display either a warning or error message. This only changes the color scheme
24 for the i3-nagbar. Default: error.
26 *-m, --message* 'message'::
27 Display 'message' as text on the left of the i3-nagbar.
30 Select font that is being used.
32 *-b, --button* 'button' 'terminal-action'::
33 Adds a button labelled 'button' to the bar. When pressed, the command given
34 in 'terminal-action' is executed inside a terminal emulator, via i3-sensible-terminal(1).
35 Multiple buttons can be defined.
37 *-B, --button-sh* 'button' 'shell-action'::
38 Same as *--button*, except that the command given in 'shell-action' is executed directly by the shell.
42 i3-nagbar is used by i3 to tell you about errors in your configuration file
43 (for example). While these errors are logged to the logfile (if any), the past
44 has proven that users are either not aware of their logfile or do not check it
45 after modifying the configuration file.
