wayfire is a wayland compositor focusing
on modularity and extensibility by providing a small core compositor
implementation with all major functionality being provided by plugins. The
default plugins provide 3D effects similar to compiz, such as 3D cube,
wobbly windows, blur, fish eye, etc.
The optional flags are described as follows:
-c,
--config config_fileStart wayfire with an alternative
configuration file. The default configuration file is searched first in
the ${WAYFIRE_CONFIG_FILE} environment variable,
or paths ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/wayfire.ini,
${HOME}/.config/wayfire.ini.
-B,
--config-backend
config_backendSpecify config backend to use.
-d,
--debugEnable debug logging.
-D,
--damage-debugEnable additional debug for damaged regions.
-h,
--helpPrint a short help message.
-R,
--damage-rendererRerender damaged regions.
-v,
--versionPrint the version.
wayfire respects the following environment
