NAME

6       labwc - A Wayland stacking compositor
7

SYNOPSIS

9       labwc  [options...] [command]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Labwc is a stacking compositor for Wayland. It aims to be light-weight
13       and have the feel of Openbox albeit with a smaller feature set. Where
14       practicable, it uses clients to show wall-paper, take screenshots, and
15       so on. It tries to stay in keeping with wlroots and sway in terms of
16       approach and coding style.

CONFIGURATION AND THEMING

38       Labwc uses openbox specification for configuration and theming, but
39       does not support all options. The the following files control the look
40       and behaviour:
41
42       ·   ~/.config/labwc/rc.xml
43       ·   ~/.config/labwc/menu.xml
44       ·   ~/.config/labwc/autostart
45       ·   ~/.config/labwc/environment
46       ·   ~/.themes/<name>/openbox-3/themerc
47
48
49       Equivalent XDG Base Directory Specification locations are also hon‐
50       oured.
51
52       The configuration file and theme are re-loaded on receiving signal
53       SIGHUP.
54
55       The autostart file is executed as a shell script. This is a place for
56       setting a background image, launching a panel, or similar.
57
58       The environment file is parsed as <variable>=<value> and sets environ‐
59       ment variables accordingly. It is recommended to specify keyboard set‐
60       tings here, for example: `XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT=gb`. See xkeyboard-con‐
61       fig(7) for details.  Note that the environment file is treated differ‐
62       ently by openbox where it is simply sourced prior to running openbox.
