== ENVIRONMENT
=== I3SOCK
-This variable overwrites the IPC socket path (placed in
-/tmp/i3-%u.XXXXXX/ipc-socket.%p by default, where %u is replaced with your UNIX
-username, %p is replaced with i3’s PID and XXXXXX is a string of random
-characters from the portable filename character set (see mkdtemp(3))). The IPC
-socket is used by external programs like i3-msg(1) or i3bar(1).

-== TODO
-
-There is still lot of work to do. Please check our bugtracker for up-to-date
-information about tasks which are still not finished.
+This variable overwrites the IPC socket path (see userguide for default
+location). The IPC socket is used by external programs like i3-msg(1), i3bar(1)
+or user-made scripts.
== SEE ALSO
You should have a copy of the userguide (featuring nice screenshots/graphics
which is why this is not integrated into this manpage), the debugging guide,
-and the "how to hack" guide. If you are building from source, run:
