NAME
labwc - A Wayland stacking compositor with the look and feel of Openbox
SYNOPSIS
labwc [-c <config-file>] [-h] [-s <startup-command>] [-v]
DESCRIPTION
Labwc is a [WIP] free, stacking compositor for Wayland. It aims to be light-weight and have the feel of Openbox.
OPTIONS
-c <config-file>-
Specify path to rc.xml
-h-
Show help message
-s <startup-command>-
Specify startup command
-v-
Increase verbosity. '-v' for info; '-vv' for debug.
CONFIGURATION AND THEMES
Labwc aims to be compatible with openbox configuration and theming, with the following files controlling the look and behaviour:
- ~/.config/labwc/rc.xml (see labwc-config(5) for details)
- ~/.config/labwc/autostart
- ~/.config/labwc/environment
- ~/.themes/
<name>/openbox-3/themerc (see labwc-theme(5) for details)
Equivalent XDG Base Directory Specification locations are also honoured.
The configuration file and theme are re-loaded on receiving signal SIGHUP.
The autostart file is executed as a shell script. This is a place for setting a background image, launching a panel, and so on.
The environment file is parsed as <variable>=<value> and sets environment
variables accordingly. It is recommended to specify keyboard settings here,
for example: XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT=gb. See xkeyboard-config(7) for details.
