Example Configuration

Here is an extensive example configuration which adds binding modes to manipulate gaps at runtime.

set $mode_gaps Gaps: (o)uter, (i)nner, (h)orizontal, (v)ertical, (t)op, (r)ight, (b)ottom, (l)eft
set $mode_gaps_outer Outer Gaps: +|-|0 (local), Shift + +|-|0 (global)
set $mode_gaps_inner Inner Gaps: +|-|0 (local), Shift + +|-|0 (global)
set $mode_gaps_horiz Horizontal Gaps: +|-|0 (local), Shift + +|-|0 (global)
set $mode_gaps_verti Vertical Gaps: +|-|0 (local), Shift + +|-|0 (global)
set $mode_gaps_top Top Gaps: +|-|0 (local), Shift + +|-|0 (global)
set $mode_gaps_right Right Gaps: +|-|0 (local), Shift + +|-|0 (global)
set $mode_gaps_bottom Bottom Gaps: +|-|0 (local), Shift + +|-|0 (global)
set $mode_gaps_left Left Gaps: +|-|0 (local), Shift + +|-|0 (global)
