So recently I looked at adding tabbing into bspwm with suckless tabbed but one of things that bothered me about that setup was that it wasn't convenient to add windows to an existence tabbed instance, you had to spawn the window and then add it but what if you removed a step. Initially we were going to look at adding tabbing specifically for lf since lacking tabs is a common complaint about the application. However, I decided to expand this out to include other applications that I would be likely to use with tabbing, and besides being a complete hack to get it to work I feel like it works fairly well.

Since the recording of this video I did modify the script to make it use bspc subscribe to listen to when windows are created.
