Thomas Wouters 233ab740fe disable tilde subscripting to fix manpage
Asciidoc uses tildes to subscript and carets to superscript text.
The first tilde can be escaped to fix this, but looks weird because
the second tilde may not be escaped.

It doesn't seem like subscripting will be used in the man page so it
makes sense to disable it altogether.

sway

"SirCmpwn's Wayland window manager"

sway is a work in progress i3-compatible window manager for Wayland.

Chat on #sway on irc.freenode.net

Rationale

I use i3 on xorg. Wayland is coming, and i3way still has zero lines of source code after two years.

Status

See "i3 feature support"

Installation

Arch Linux

Install aur/sway-git.

Manual

Dependencies:

  • cmake
  • wlc
  • xwayland
  • asciidoc

Compiling:

cmake .
make
# sudo make install

Binary shows up in ./bin (or /usr/local/bin if you make install).

Configuration

mkdir ~/.config/sway
cp ~/.config/i3/config ~/.config/sway/

Or if you don't already use i3:

mkdir ~/.config/sway
cp /etc/sway/config ~/.config/sway/

Edit to your liking.

Running

sway

If you run this while xorg is running, it'll run inside of an x window (useful for testing). Otherwise, it'll run wayland properly.
