        ## Description
        
        This python program drags i3 into the 'managed layouts
        tiling window manager world' kicking and screaming.
        
        What it does is apply a window layout to your current workspace,
        like this one:
        
            -------------
            |     |  2  |
            |     |-----|
            |  1  |  3  |
            |     |-----|
            |     |  4  |
            -------------
        
        The big advantage here  is that it needs no 'swallow' definitions whatsoever,
        it's 'instant' - just add milk, eh, press the button.
        
        ## Get started
        i3-instant-layout depends xdotool which can be installed by your package manager (e.g. `sudo apt-get install xdotool` on Debian or Ubuntu)
        
        To get started, install with `pip install i3-instant-layout`, or if you prefer, [pipx](https://github.com/pipxproject/pipx)
        and add this to your i3 config: 
        `bindsym $mod+Escape exec "i3-instant-layout --list | rofi -dmenu -i | i3-instant-layout -` (or use the interactive menu of your choice).
        
        
        ## Further information
        
        Call `i3-instant-layout --help` for full details, or 
        `i3-instant-layout --desc` for the full list of supported layouts (or see below).
        
        
        ## Helpful tips
        
        ### How to sort windows
        Your current active window is what the tiler will consider the 'main window'.
        
        To get the other windows in the right order for your layout of choice,
        first enable the vStack or hStack layout, sort them,
        and the proceed to your layout of choice.
        
        ### Border styles
        
        i3-instant-layout must unmap/map the windows (ie. hide them temporarily) for i3 
        to place them at the right location.
        Unfortunatly that appears to consume the border style.
        Work around this with a line like this in your i3 config:
        ```
        for_window [class="^.*"] border pixel 1
        ```
