For example, use _swaymsg 'output "Foobar Display" enable'_ instead of - _swaymsg output "Foobar Display" enable_. + _swaymsg output "Foobar Display" enable_. Furthermore, note that comma + separated options also count as multi-word strings, because commas can be + used to execute commands on the same line. - If you are providing a command that contains a leading hyphen (_-_), insert two hyphens (_--_) before the command to signal to swaymsg not to parse anything beyond that point as an option. For example, use -- cgit v1.2.3
