    For my wm+Emacs work, I unified the shortcuts by calling a separate go bin that checks if the active window is Emacs or not. If it is, it sends the command to the Emacs Daemon. If it’s not it sends the command to i3. For directional commands like move focus, first check it there’s an Emacs window to that side, if not send the command to i3.

      The things we have to go through just to meet basic needs.

      How are you redirecting all input through your custom exec? Is that an i3 feature?
