286 * /etc/fstab), we need to write commands to a script and then just run

291 * Initially, we tried to pass the command via the environment variable
292 * _I3_NAGBAR_CMD. But turns out that some terminal emulators such as
293 * xfce4-terminal run all windows from a single master process and only
294 * pass on the command (not the environment) to that master process.

299 * the .nagbar_cmd suffix and runs /bin/sh on argv[0]. That way, we can run
300 * a shell script on a noexec filesystem.
302 * From a security point of view, i3-nagbar is just an alias to /bin/sh in
303 * certain circumstances. This should not open any new security issues, I
