;;; term-switcher.el --- Easily switch between open X11 terminals
;;
;; Copyright (C) 2019 Google Inc.

;; Author: Vincent Ambo <tazjin@google.com>
;; Version: 1.0
;; Package-Requires: (dash ivy s)
;;
;;; Commentary:
;;
;; This package adds a function that lets users quickly switch between
;; different open X11 terminals using ivy.
;;
;; It is primarily intended to be used by EXWM users who use graphical
;; terminals inside of Emacs.
;;
;; Users MUST configure the group `term-switcher' and can then bind
;; `ts/switch-to-terminal' to an appropriate key.
