41 | Description | ||
42 | ----------- | ||
43 | |||
44 | sway was created to fill the need of an i3-like window manager for Wayland. The | ||
45 | upstream i3 developers have no intention of porting i3 to Wayland, and projects | ||
46 | proposed by others ended up as vaporware. Many thanks to the i3 folks for | ||
47 | providing such a great piece of software, so good that your users would rather | ||
48 | write an entirely new window manager from scratch that behaved _exactly_ like i3 | ||
49 | rather than switch to something else. | ||
50 | |||
51 | You may run sway from an ongoing x11 session to run it within x. Otherwise, you | ||
52 | can run sway on a tty and it will use your outputs directly. | ||
53 | |||
54 | *Important note for nvidia users*: The proprietary nvidia driver does _not_ have | ||
55 | support for Wayland as of 2015-08-17. Use nouveau. | ||
56 | |||
57 | Commands | ||
58 | -------- | ||
59 | |||
60 | If sway is currently running, you may run _sway [command]_ to send _command_ to | ||
61 | the running instance of sway. The same commands you would use in the config file | ||
62 | are valid here (see **sway**(5)). For compatibility reasons, you may also issue | ||
63 | commands with **sway-msg**(1) or **i3-msg**(1) (or even with **i3**(1), probably). | ||
64 | |||
65 | Configuration | ||
66 | ------------- | ||
67 | |||
68 | If _-c_ is not specified, sway will look in several locations for your config | ||
69 | file. The suggested location for your config file is ~/.config/sway/config. | ||
70 | ~/.sway/config will also work, and the rest of the usual XDG config locations | ||
71 | are supported. At last, sway looks for a config file in a fallback directory, | ||
72 | which is /etc/sway/ by default. A standard configuration file is installed at | ||
73 | this location. If no sway config is found, sway will attempt to load an i3 | ||
74 | config from all the config locations i3 supports. If still nothing is found, | ||
75 | you will receive an error. | ||
76 | |||
77 | For information on the config file format, see **sway**(5). | ||
