This forces no_auto_back_and_forth to true for `workspace next_on_output` and `workspace prev_on_output` to keep parity with i3. In i3, running next_on_output never changes focus to another output. In Sway currently, with workspace_auto_back_and_forth set to yet, running next_on_output on an output with only a single active workspace will typically end up focussing the other output: 1. next_on_output focusses the current workspace, because it's the only one 2. auto_back_and_forth focusses the last focussed workspace, because the current workspace to focus is the current one. This will usually be on the other monitor if the workspace there was last focussed. |

Installation
From Packages
Sway is available in many distributions. Try installing the "sway" package for yours.
If you're interested in packaging sway for your distribution, stop by the IRC channel or shoot an email to sir@cmpwn.com for advice.
Compiling from Source
Check out this wiki page if you want to build the HEAD of sway and wlroots for testing or development.
Install dependencies:
- meson *
- wlroots
- wayland
- wayland-protocols *
- pcre
- json-c
- pango
- cairo
- gdk-pixbuf2 (optional: system tray)
- scdoc (optional: man pages) *
- git (optional: version info) *
*Compile-time dep
Run these commands:
meson build/
ninja -C build/
sudo ninja -C build/ install
On systems without logind, you need to suid the sway binary:
sudo chmod a+s /usr/local/bin/sway
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).
