Learn how Polypane improves your workflow
Command line options
Polypane has a few command line options (cli).
Opening URLS
Polypane also supports opening URLs and files in a number of different ways. You can start Polypane with a URL as the first argument to open that url: $ polypane https://example.com
. Or on MacOs you can use $ open https://example.com -a "Polypane"
.
Reload
To reload the currently active tab in Polypane, execute $ polypane --reload
in the terminal. This will focus the Polypane window as well. If Polypane is not open yet, it will just launch Polypane
Prevent focus
You can start Polypane with -g
to prevent it from focusing on launch. You can combine this with --reload
to reload the currently active tab without also focusing Polypane.
