The -upstream i3 developers have no intention of porting i3 to Wayland, and projects -proposed by others ended up as vaporware. Many thanks to the i3 folks for -providing such a great piece of software, so good that your users would rather -write an entirely new window manager from scratch that behaved _exactly_ like i3 -rather than switch to something else. - -Launch sway directly from a tty or via your favorite Wayland-compatible login -manager. - -Commands --------- - -If sway is currently running, you may run _sway [command]_ to send _command_ to -the running instance of sway. The same commands you would use in the config file -are valid here (see **sway**(5)). For compatibility reasons, you may also issue -commands with **swaymsg**(1) or **i3-msg**(1) (or even with **i3**(1), probably). - -Configuration -------------- - -The path to a config file can be given via the _-c_ parameter, else -sway searches for it in the following locations: -- ~/.sway/config -- $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/sway/config (suggested location) -- ~/.i3/config -- $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/i3/config (XDG_HOME ) -- /etc/sway/config -- /etc/i3/config - -In /etc/sway/config the standard config file is installed. -An error is raised when no config file is found. - -To write your own configuration, it's suggested that you copy the default config file to -the location of your choosing and start there. - -For information on the config file format, see **sway**(5). - -Environment ------------ - -The following environment variables have an effect on sway: - -*SWAY_CURSOR_THEME*:: - Specifies the name of the cursor theme to use. - -*SWAY_CURSOR_SIZE*:: - Specifies the size of the cursor to use. - -*SWAYSOCK*:: - Specifies the path to the sway IPC socket. - -*XKB_DEFAULT_RULES*, *XKB_DEFAULT_MODEL*, *XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT*, *XKB_DEFAULT_VARIANT*, *XKB_DEFAULT_OPTIONS*:: - Configures the xkb keyboard settings.
