Why the name?

An uppercase I looks like a 1, 3 from i3, and 8 because the song We Are 138 rocks!

It will also create bindings for pidgin and mumble if they are installed. To use the bindings, press your ratpoison mode key which is set when you run the i38.sh script. next, press the binding for the application you want, w for web browser, e for text editor, f for file manager, m for mumble, etc. To learn all the bindings, find and read the mode ratpoison section of ~/.config/i3/config.
