# 1) Run from terminal:
# ./dispatch.sh <application_command> <target_workspace_number>
# Example:
# ./dispatch.sh discord 2
#
# 2) Call from Hyprland config (in hyprland.conf file):
# exec-once = /path/to/dispatch.sh <application_command> <target_workspace_number>
#
# Logs are saved in dispatch.log file next to the script.
# If the window doesn't appear or is dispatched incorrectly — info will be there.

# Notes:
# - Script waits about ~9 seconds (30 iterations of 0.3 sec) for window to appear.
# - Uses hyprctl and jq, so these tools must be installed.
