When swaynag is run with the -l/--detailed-message option, a crash may
occur if the detailed message read from stdin is large enough. E.g.:
swaynag -m hello -l < ~/.config/sway/config
The root cause is that the read_from_stdin() function under-allocates
memory for the destination buffer which causes that buffer to be overflowed
when copying line data to it with snprintf().
The repair is to allocate one more byte for the terminating null byte.
N.B. although getline() returns the number of bytes read excluding a
terminating null byte, the line buffer is terminated with a null byte. Thus
we have a guarantee that the line buffer will be null terminated (which is
important when copying with snprintf()).

Sway will drop root permissions shortly after startup.
Configuration
If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config and
it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to
~/.config/sway/config. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config.
Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.
Running
Run sway from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by
sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
