 * i3-msg/main.c: Utility which sends messages to a running i3-instance using
 * IPC via UNIX domain sockets.
 *
 * This (in combination with libi3/ipc_send_message.c and
 * libi3/ipc_recv_message.c) serves as an example for how to send your own
 * messages to i3.
 *
 * Additionally, it’s even useful sometimes :-).
