kitten-@-goto-layout - Set the window layout

       Set  the  window  layout  in the specified tabs (or the active tab if not specified). You can use special
       match value all to set the layout in all tabs. In case there are multiple layouts with the same name  but
       different options, specify the full layout definition or a unique prefix of the full definition.

--to   An address for the kitty instance to control. Corresponds  to  the  address  given  to  the  kitty
              instance  via the --listen-onoptionorthelisten_onsettinginkitty.conf.Ifnotspecified,theenvironmentvariableKITTY_LISTEN_ONischecked.Ifthatisalsonotfound,messagesaresenttothecontrollingterminalforthisprocess,i.e.theywillonlyworkifthisprocessisrunwithinakittywindow.--password
              A password to use when contacting kitty. This will cause kitty to ask the user for  permission  to
              perform the specified action, unless the password has been accepted before or is pre-configured in
              kitty.conf.Touseablankpasswordspecify--use-passwordasalways.--password-file[=rc-pass]
              A  file  from  which  to  read  the  password.  Trailing whitespace is ignored. Relative paths are
              resolved from the kitty configuration directory. Use - to read from STDIN. Use fd:num to read from
              the file descriptor num. Used if no --passwordissupplied.Defaultstocheckingfortherc-passfileinthekittyconfigurationdirectory.--password-env[=KITTY_RC_PASSWORD]
              The  name  of  an  environment  variable  to read the password from. Used if no --password-fileissupplied.DefaultstocheckingtheenvironmentvariableKITTY_RC_PASSWORD.--use-password[=if-available]
              If no password is available, kitty will usually just send the remote  control  command  without  a
              password. This option can be used to force it to always or never use the supplied password. If set
              to always and no password is provided, the blank password is used.

              Choices: if-available, always, never

--match,-m
              The  tab  to  match. Match specifications are of the form: field:query. Where field can be one of:
              id, index, title, window_id, window_title, pid, cwd, cmdline env, var, state and recent. query  is
              the  expression  to  match. Expressions can be either a number or a regular expression, and can be
              combined using Boolean operators.

              The special value all matches all tabs.

              For numeric fields: id, index, window_id, pid and recent,  the  expression  is  interpreted  as  a
              number,  not  a  regular  expression.  Negative  values for id/window_id match from the highest id
              number down, in particular, -1 is the most recently created tab/window.

              When using title or id, first a matching tab is looked for, and if not found a matching window  is
              looked for, and the tab for that window is used.

              You  can  also  use  window_id and window_title to match the tab that contains the window with the
              specified id or title.

              The index number is used to match the nth tab in the currently active OS window. The recent number
              matches recently active tabs in the currently active OS window,  with  zero  being  the  currently
              active tab, one the previously active tab and so on.

              When  using  the env field to match on environment variables, you can specify only the environment
              variable name or a name and value, for example, env:MY_ENV_VAR=2. Tabs containing any window  with
              the specified environment variables are matched. Similarly, var matches tabs containing any window
              with the specified user variable.

              The  field  state  matches  on  the  state  of  the  tab.  Supported  states are: active, focused,
              needs_attention, parent_active and parent_focused. Active tabs are the tabs  that  are  active  in
              their  parent  OS window. There is only one focused tab and it is the tab to which keyboard events
              are delivered. If no tab is focused, the last focused tab is matched.

              Note that you can use the kitten @ ls command to get a list of tabs.
