i am using unity that comes in the nearly latest upgrade of 16.04.3 LTS. i have workspaces enabled (default is disabled), the sizes set to 3x3 (default is 2x2), and use them extensively every day. i generally have a mix of firefox and terminal windows in the workspaces.
what i would like to accomplish:
in a program (Bash or C or Python) i would like to have it do different things in different workspaces.
what i think i need to know:
1. how to open a terminal window in a specific workspace.
or
2. how (a program or script is) to determine which workspace it is. i have not seen any variation of environment variables other than different process IDs.
does anyone know how to accomplish different programmed actions in each workspace? it would be a plus if this can also open terminal windows in specific workspaces.
