DESCRIPTION
       fnott is	a keyboard driven and lightweight notification daemon for  wl-
       roots-based  Wayland  compositors,  implementing	(parts of) the Desktop
       Notification Specification.

       fnott is	the daemon part	and should be launched when you	log in to your
       desktop.	You should be able to configure	your Wayland compositor	to au-
       tolaunch	it for you.

       With the	daemon running,	you will be able to receive and	display	 noti-
       fications:

	   notify-send "this is	the summary" "this is the body"

       Use fnottctl(1) to interact with	it:

	   fnottctl dismiss

       Or simply click on a notification to dismiss it.

       Notifications are prioritized in	the following way:

          urgency  -  normal  notifications  always have higher priority than
	   low-urgency notifications, and critical notifications  always  have
	   higher priority than	normal notifications.
          time	 - older notifications have higher priority than newer notifi-
	   cations.

       Notifications are displayed with	the lowest priority ones at  the  top,
       and  the	 highest  priority  ones  at  the  bottom  (this is subject to
       change).
