I don't understand why I have this error: > ERROR: CONFIG: Line 154: rename workspace 1 to "1: Coding" > ERROR: CONFIG: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > ERROR: FYI: You are using i3 version 4.7.2 (2014-01-23, branch "tags/4.7.2") Wed, 14 May 2014 15:12:44 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3813/error-when-renaming-workspaces/https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3813/error-when-renaming-workspaces/?answer=3828#post-id-3828`rename` is a command, not a configuration option. As such it can only be bound to a key (`bindkey` or `bindsym`) or called with the i3-IPC (for example `i3-msg`) while i3 is already running. If you want your workspace `1` to be named `1: Coding` instead, you just have to modify the keybinding for it. bindsym $mod+1 workspace 1: Coding i3 will take the names of workspaces from these bindings.Fri, 16 May 2014 07:58:56 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/3813/error-when-renaming-workspaces/?answer=3828#post-id-3828
