labwc - A Wayland stacking compositor
labwc [options...] [command]
Labwc is a wlroots-based stacking compositor for Wayland.
It aims to be light-weight and independent, with a focus on simply stacking windows well and rendering some window decorations. Where practicable, it uses clients for wall-paper, panels, screenshots, and so on.

Labwc uses openbox specification for configuration and theming, but does not support all options. The the following files control the look and behaviour:
•
~/.config/labwc/rc.xml
• ~/.config/labwc/menu.xml
• ~/.config/labwc/autostart
• ~/.config/labwc/environment
• ~/.themes/<name>/openbox-3/themerc
Equivalent XDG Base Directory Specification locations are also honoured.
The configuration file and theme are re-loaded on receiving signal SIGHUP.
The autostart file is executed as a shell script. This is a place for setting a background image, launching a panel, or similar.
The environment file is parsed as <variable>=<value> and sets environment variables accordingly. It is recommended to specify keyboard settings here, for example: ‘XKB_DEFAULT_LAYOUT=gb‘. See xkeyboard-config(7) for details. Note that the environment file is treated differently by openbox where it is simply sourced prior to running openbox.
