Idea: Focus follows monitor

[rublev]

Similar to focus follows mouse, except it just focuses the last active app in that monitor. So when I mouse over to a different monitor then execute my "switch space" hotkey, i dont have to do a click action before it. I can just mouse over, do my switch space hotkey and it works. That would save me a lot of clicks!

I believe, you could script it easily

The switch space part can be done with:

yabai -m display mouse --space next

Awesome I got it working, wasn't sure how yabai -m display mouse --space next worked and gave me errors. How can I get your command working? This is what I have right now and it works well:

# # cycle through spaces
# # https://github.com/koekeishiya/yabai/issues/303
alt - c : yabai -m display --focus mouse && yabai -m space --focus "$(yabai -m query --spaces --display \
    | jq 'reverse | nth(index(map(select(."has-focus" == true))) - 1).index')"

# # cycle backwards
alt - z : yabai -m display --focus mouse && yabai -m space --focus "$(yabai -m query --spaces --display \
    | jq 'nth(index(map(select(."has-focus" == true))) - 1).index')"

Any way to simplify the above commands?
