dwl - This module provides information about dwl tags, and information.

This module provides a map of each tags present in dwl.

Each tags has its id, its status (selected, empty, urgent) and the global data like title, fullscreen, floating, selmon, and layout). The tags start a 1. For needs where you only want information about the global data and not the tags, there is a tag with the id 0 that contains only the global data.

This module will track only the monitor where yambar was launched on. If you have a multi monitor setup, please launch yambar on each of your monitors.

Please, be aware that only one instance of this module is supported. Running multiple instances at the same time may result in undefined behavior.
