The layer-shell allows transparency effects; however, only a few compositors correctly support it. The xdg protocol will work on almost all compositors, but does not allow for transparency. -s, --show-binds Will show the keybinds of a button by inserting the key needed to acti- vate the button next to its label. -P, --primary-monitor <num> Select the monitor to display buttons on; Monitors are numbered from 0 up. -n, --no-span Stops wlogout from spanning across multiple monitors, can be combined with `--primary-monitor` to only appear on one monitor. DESCRIPTION wlogout was created to replace oblogout with a native logout script for Wayland. It also seeks to be a faster alternative that does not rely on deprecated technology such as python 2; while maintaining a small code footprint. You can run wlogout from any Wayland environment and it should just work. CONFIGURATION Wlogout searches for a layout and style.css file in the following loca- tions, in this order: 1. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wlogout/ 2. /etc/wlogout/ 3. /usr/local/etc/wlogout If unset, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaults to ~/.config/. An error is raised when no layout file is found; However, the style.css file is optional. If you would like to customise either it is recommended that you copy the defaults from /etc/wlogout/ into ~/.config and make any changes there.
